Bradley Cemetery Regulations

In order to keep our cemetery attractive, the cemetery board has adopted the following regulations on April 6, 1999 and April 16, 2004.

The following is not permitted:

1.  The planting of trees, bushes, shrubs, hedges or flowers.

2.  The building of fences and or borders around grave sites.

3.  Removal of flowers from any lot except ones own.

4.  Families should contact the cemetery board:

    a.  Before the setting of markers, monuments, memorial and reflection benches.

    b.  Before the opening of any grave or selection of a grave site.

We are aware that trees, bushes, shrubs, hedges, flowers, rose bushes, fences, stone borders, etc exist in the cemetery.  However, they were placed there many years ago before the Association acquired it.  Three headstones are hidden behind two juniper trees and one was completely covered by an old rose bush that had to be destroyed to uncover it.  We therefore decided that the only way to prevent this from happening in the future was to cease the activity.  These rules exist to make the cemetery as easy to maintain as possible so please do not argue with them.

Notice:

10 days after memorial day, flowers on the ground will be picked up

Future Plans

Future plans for the cemetery expected to take place this summer are:

1) Investigate a method of protecting against soil erosion on the west side so a fence can be built there.  Building a retaining wall has been suggested.
