General Guidelines For
Working In The Cemetery: |
A. All work beyond routine
maintenance to be undertaken in
your adopted plot must be
reported to the CRC.
B. Report to the CRC, any
deterioration or damage

existing headstones or monuments
found in the plot. Damaged
headstones will be put on a

permit.

some of these old monuments,
special care should be taken in
the choice of mechanical
equipment and the way it is
used.
D. Any plans for cleaning of
monuments or headstones must be
reported to the CRC to ensure
the proper equipment and
materials are used.
E. Plans for reconstruction,
repairs or any structural
changes must be approved in
advance by the CRC.

cemeteries, located within the
Village of Patchogue. These
cemeteries include the Lake View
Cemetery, Rice Cemetery, Old

the Incorporated Village of
Patchogue and their Board of
Trustees.
