Show Bountiful Still Ponders Selling Burial Vaults The cemetery committee of the Bountiful city council is studying whether the city should sell burial vaults or leave the selling to morticians. Several aspects to the proposed pro-posed action were discussed by the city council at its regular meeting last Wednesday night. One, the selling is considered consider-ed because it might help reduce re-duce the cemetery deficit. Two, there appears to be some question about the legality legal-ity of the city entering the business. If legal, there is still the matter of whether it is Mood for the city to set up in competition to local business. City officials estimated from $33 lo $35 might be made from each vault sold. Another possibility being -onsidered to raise more cemetery ceme-tery money is a revised fee schedule. This would mean a .ligher rate for non-Bountiful residents, since Bountiful residents resi-dents presently are aiding the cemetery through taxes. |
