Present : Edwards, Prime and Supt . Mosher
The spring cleanup is on schedule with foundation pours underway.
Rodney has visited several retort units and gotten prices . The IE
from Florida C$34, 520 and $32, 825) has the controls on the front
and stainless steel stacks . The Crawford C$32, 917. 50) from Ohio is
a match to the unit we now have . The less expensive IE seems the
best buy.
Our retort can handle only four cremations in a day and that is
pushing it hard. 102 have been done so far this year or about 23%
of burials . We have no backup but do have the cooling room. There
is the problem of paying for the unit . The need is real but is it
pressing at this time? There was no vote taken.
Steve Borgos would like a letter outlining the need for the second
unit and the secretary was directed to write same .
The new area of the cemetery is selling well . We' ll do some minor
landscaping.
A check came from the insurance company for the Sunnyside fence in
the amount of $5063 . The work will cost $6, 587 and $1, 524 will
have to be found somewhere to pay the difference . No decision was
made to go ahead with the repairs .
