Rules and Regulations of the Town of Weare Cemeteries

all owners and visitors within the cemeteries, and all lots sold shall be
subject to said rules and regulations, and subject further, to such amendments
or alterations as shall be adopted by the Board of Trustees from time to time.
Forward
Due to the explosive growth that has taken place in the Town of Weare over the
past several years, it has become necessary for the Cemetery Trustees to adopt
Rules and Regulations to ensure that the cemeteries maintain a dignified
appearance and further to ensure that proper maintenance of the cemeteries does
not become difficult or impossible as the sale of lots increases.

cremation and interment, entombment or burial.
