The Plymouth Common Council approved two ordinances on their second and third readings at last Monday’s meeting.
The first ordinance addressed the fees for the new addition to Oak Hill Cemetery, Cherrywood. The ordinance sets lot fees at $1000, but the higher price includes the base for a head marker. There are 180 lots in this new section, which is south of the mausoleum.
The second ordinance makes necessary amendments to the city’s Stormwater Management Regulations. The updates were put together with City Engineer Dan Sellers and Chris Marshall, along with assistance from Lochmueller Engineering.
There were two other ordinances the city council addressed, one for the Park Board and the other for the Aviation Board.
Kyle Williams, the first deputy in the City of Plymouth Clerk’s office, has been comparing the current city ordinances with changes in new legislation at the state level. He found discrepancies in the makeup of the board and brought it to the attention of the City Attorney.
Attorney Jeff Houin presented the new information to the Common Council and suggested suspending the rules and passing the ordinance changes on all three readings.
After discussing the changes, the Plymouth Common Council unanimously approved both ordinances on all three readings.
