Cemetery to be readied for winter

The city of Post Falls will begin preparing Evergreen Cemetery for the winter following Veterans Day on Tuesday.

Individual cemetery lot owners are asked to remove all seasonal decorations or decorative items from cemetery lots by Sunday, Nov. 23.

Seasonal decorations and temporary displays which constitute a problem during winter weather will be removed and discarded in accordance with the city's cemetery regulations beginning Monday, Nov. 24. Glass, ceramics and other breakables are not permitted in the cemetery at any time.

Cemetery regulations can be found at www.postfallsidaho.org and are also posted outside the cemetery office front door. Lot owners who need clarification about decorations which constitute a problem or with specific questions should call 773-0539.

Evergreen Cemetery is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to accommodate those needing to remove decorations.
