UPPER LAKE, Calif. – The Upper Lake Cemetery District said it plans to begin more strictly enforcing rules for cemetery grounds this spring.

Cemetery rules enacted in September 2006 and amended in January 2012 list items that shall not be placed on graves or headstones.

Beginning on April 30, those rules will be strictly enforced, the district said.

Those rules include not allowing glass in the cemetery.

In addition, items not to be placed on gravestones or headstones include statues, toys, globes, bottles, cans, jugs, wind chimes, solar lights, food or any object which interferes with maintenance or operation of the cemetery.

People who have placed such items on graves are asked to remove all unauthorized objects by April 30, or the district will remove them.
