THE CITY OF OPELIKA
OPELIKA —
Effective Monday, April 10, new rules, regulations and pricing will be in place for all public Opelika cemeteries — Rosemere, Garden Hills and Evergreen.
“The city has not revised cemetery rules and pricing since 2015,” said Mike Hilyer, director of ESG/Public Works. “It was time we took a look at all aspects of our public cemeteries. Within 10 to 15 years, Garden Hills will more than likely be full. This will help us as we look at growth moving forward.
“We will be opening new sections in Garden Hills soon. We are in the process of planning and surveying for new estate lots around the cross. This will be a great addition to Garden Hills.”
For more information on rules and cemetery options, please contact Hilyer, Lynn Scott or Percy Marks at 334-705-5400.
