here Pride and Pr,SPerity Meet
TO: Advisory Committee on Historic Preservation
FROM: Ben Boike, Community Development Director
DATE: April 7, 2021
RE: Atkinson Cemetery Tree Planting
Introduction
At the previous meeting, the ACHP inquired as to whether or not a new tree or additional
landscaping could be planted at the cemetery.
Discussion
In discussion of the proposal with the Parks Director, part of the challenge on the site is the
lack of grave markings. As a result, City staff does not feel comfortable digging and is
hesitant to replant. That said, the site is maintained by the City's Parks Department, so if
anyone has or can locate information on the locations of the grave sites, the Parks
Department would be happy to plant a new tree.
Recommendation
Review and discuss.
