TYPE OF PROGRAM ADJUSTMENT
DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM      
Operation of Memorial Park Cemetery
Maintenance staffing and operation cost for taking over the Memorial Park Cemetery
We have been operating for 2 years and have not added maintenance staff or  
operational money for this facility.  
   
   
 
 
       
BENEFITS OF FUNDING PROGRAM      
Facilities will be maintinded at an acceptable level for the public  
This request will provide a maintenance and operating budget for the newly acquired cemetery (May of 2005).
Below is background information comparing the Oak Hill cemetery with Memorial Park   
   
  Oak Hill  /Maple Grove Memorial Park  
Approximate burials per year 110 110  
Estimated revenue per year $90,000 ????  
Approximate operating budget per year $180,000 ????  
       
ESTIMATE AND EXPLANATION OF NEW REVENUE    
A conservative estimate of revenue would be $55,000- $60,000 per year
Memorial Park currently has higher fees than Oak Hill / Maple Grove, so depending on future  
fee changes revenue at Memorial Park should equal Oak Hill / Maple Grove. Much of this
will depend on how many lot at Memorial Park were pre sold in past years.        
CONSEQUENCES OF NOT FUNDING PROGRAM    
   
Current staff levels are not adequate to operate 3 cemeteries of this size. Office staff was added in 
2006, but full-time maintenance staff was not included in the budget. We currently have one full-time 
person assigned to Memorial Park for maintenance. This has resulted in a lower level of maintenance 
at Oak Hill and Maple Grove. This reduction of labor will become more obvious to the public
as time goes by.  
POSITIONS INVOLVED IN PROGRAM IMPROVEMENT    
   
Upgrade existing full-time Senior Parks & Facility maintenance position to a Field Supervisor - $1,905
Add a additional full-time Parks & Facility Maintenance - $38,039
