Cemetery watering

Resident wants the City of Vernon to focus on priorities

I realize that city councillors need to be responsive to all community members' concerns, but a reality check is needed by some whose vision only extends to their own little world.

The grass in every neighbourhood is yellow due to water conservation.

Why should it be any different at the cemetery.

If visiting loved ones would like greener grass to walk on while there, then maybe fees charged for the privilege of space at the cemetery should be higher and budgeted separately.

My family can't afford that privilege, and I would prefer that tax dollars go to much-needed services for the living in this community.
