Committee votes for cemetery price increases

Prices at the Bardstown Cemetery may go up if Bardstown City Council approves a recommendation of the cemetery committee.

The committee voted Wednesday to recommend increases to plot prices as well as the cost of opening and closing a grave with the intention of matching the prices at St. Joseph Cemetery, which is adjacent, Cemetery Sexton Bobbe Blincoe said.

The committee voted to recommend an increase from $400 for plots in the front of the cemetery, near North Third Street, and $350 for those farther back to $500 and $450, respectively, Blincoe said.
