Overview: During the recent Lunenburg Finance Committee meeting, concerns were raised about the Cemetery Commission’s handling of financial matters, with resident John Bowen voicing his dissatisfaction. Bowen criticized the commission for its lack of experience and knowledge, particularly in managing funds related to cemetery maintenance and capital planning. Highlighting the commission’s decision not to withdraw from the sale of lots fund, which has a substantial balance of approximately $943,466, he raised questions about the commission’s efficiency. Bowen argued against a proposed $50,000 capital plan for piecemeal improvements at North Cemetery, advocating instead for a comprehensive approach to cemetery maintenance and citing a detailed strategy prepared by William Bernard. Bowen emphasized the pressing financial needs, estimating that $532,000 is required to maintain the cemeteries properly, which he deemed unfeasible under current constraints.
