Issue - decisions

The Committee received and considered the report of the Operations & Estates Advisor concerning closed churchyards at St Mary’s and Holy Trinity churches and imminent stability testing of graves.

Stability testing would be taking place shortly so officers advised exclusive right of burial owners would be notified in ample time. Previously, several methods had been used including, social media, the newspaper and an open day where the testing was carried out in front of grave owners. The Friends of the Cemeteries Group would be asked to also advertise on its platforms.

RESOLVED:

That the report be noted.
