MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor Gabriel and Council Members
FROM: City Clerk Saner and Parks and Recreation Director Walker
DATE: June 8, 2022
SUBJECT: Ordinance 3293-2022 — Staff Recommendation and Requested
Amendment
Kenai Municipal Code 24.15.010 establishes that the City Clerk with the assistance of the Parks
and Recreation Commission and Director establish regulations for the cemetery to be submitted
to the City Council for approval.
The Parks and Recreation Commission held a Work Session on April 7, 2022 to discuss the Kenai
Municipal Cemetery Policy Review and provide direction toward drafting updates to the policy,
they met again May 5, 2022 and recommended Council approval of the updated Kenai Municipal
Cemetery Regulations Draft.
Since the Parks and Recreation Commission recommendations the following items have been
identified for potential amendments.
1. Staff supports including the prohibition of fire or flames within the cemetery.
2. Staff does not support allowing enclosure such as picket fences or parameters around an
interment site. The basis for this opinion is related to the recommendation of the Parks and
Recreation Commission and not only the costs associated with maintaining those interment
sites with fencing, but it also relates to the overall appearance and condition of the cemetery
for all users.
3. Staff supports allowing plastic or silk flowers and artificial decorations year-round.
Proposed Amendment:
Motion
Amend the Kenai Municipal Cemetery Regulations as attached to Ordinance 3293-2022 and
referenced for adoption in Section 4 of the ordinance, to include headstone material requirements
within the Marker and Headstone Section:
Markers shall be constructed of materials that will not decay, rot or decompose. Examples are
hard stone, concrete or hard metals.
