Families have until Jan. 31, 2017 to claim items at the City Cemetery maintenance shop, 1001 RR 12 Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. – 5 p.m.

City staff held a major cleanup of the City Cemetery the first full week of October, removing items from burial places that do not conform to City Cemetery rules or that have become unsightly.
