What: pricing of the remaining lots in the Beth Jacob reserved section of Green Mount Cemetery, plus the Cemetery Director job description and whether the cemetery should become a city department.
Where it stands: at the 2026-11-09 meeting the commission voted unanimously (per draft minutes, not yet approved) to sell the remaining 11 reserved lots at $1,500 each, with $1,000 to the Perpetual Care Fund and $500 to operating. Lots sold back to Beth Jacob are repurchased at the original purchase price, and Beth Jacob must match the cemetery's lot prices in perpetuity. The synagogue had assumed the old $1,000 price.
Discussion only, no vote: a draft Cemetery Director job description and the department question.
Next: the draft cemetery budget goes to the City Council by December; next commission meeting 2026-12-14.
Unanimous motions on the $1,500 lot price, buy-back at original price, and price matching; job description and department status discussed without a vote.
