FY 2020 Budget

Budget Impact: The cemetery operates with one full-time employee along with the assistance of one year-round part time employee and three seasonal employees that are hired for the summer mowing season. When not maintaining the city's cemeteries, the department will also assist the Parks Department with maintenance of park property. The budget maintains current staffing levels for the cemetery along with current operational support funds. The Cemetery Department relies on Local Option Sales Tax to fund capital projects and equipment purchases. This budget continues to allocate $20,000 towards the Cemetery Reserve fund for this purpose.

Future Concerns:

The employee filling the year-round part-time position could retire from the City at any time. The City will have to decide if and how to replace that position once that vacancy occurs.
