Fairview Cemetery regulations are quite simple. Section C restricts the size of the monument to a maximum of 50" width, 10" depth, and 20" height. There are also single grave size restrictions. The restrictions are strictly enforced on all above ground monuments. The Cremation Memorial Section restricts the size of the monument to a flat marker. All conventional burials must have a concrete burial vault. Fairview Cemetery does not allow evergreens to be planted on any part of the cemetery. Flowers may be placed at any time, however, they will be removed and discarded when they deteriorate. Christmas decorations remain until the middle of March and in ground plantings are not permitted.
