New Cemetery Contractor Appointed in May 2024
We are pleased to announce the appointment of a new contractor for the maintenance of our cemetery as of May 2024. After a period of seven months without any maintenance, we understand that the cemetery is not in its usual pristine condition, and we appreciate your patience as we work to restore it.
The Council faced challenges in finding a local contractor who not only meets our standards but also has a keen horticultural eye. While larger companies have been considered in the past, their work has not always aligned with the Council’s desired quality outcomes. We believe that our new contractor will provide the strong stewardship needed to maintain the cemetery as a place of rest and respect.
Restoring the cemetery to its former state will take some time, and we ask for your understanding during this period. The Council is committed to ensuring that the cemetery is maintained to the highest standards, and we are confident that our new contractor will help us achieve this goal, including improved maintenance of the pathways to the cemetery, and the garden of rest.
Thank you for your patience and support as we work to improve this community space. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us.
