This maintenance will include, but is not <br /> limited to, the following: <br /> a. The cleaning of the monument; <br /> b. Ensuring that the monument is seated properly; and <br /> c. Repairing any damage to the monument or the structure of <br /> the monument, including replacement, if necessary. <br /> (12) In the event that a monument is in need of maintenance, the parks <br /> and recreation director will send a letter requesting such repairs to <br /> the lot owner, or the owner's surviving family members or <br /> descendants, if known, advising of the necessary maintenance. If <br /> the lot owner or the owner's surviving family members or <br /> descendants cannot be located, then the parks and recreation <br /> director will publish a newspaper notice of the necessary <br /> maintenance in accordance with the procedures described in <br /> V.T.C.A., Probate Estates Code, Articles 33 and 50 Chapters 51 <br /> and 202. If the necessary maintenance is not performed within the <br /> time period stated in the notice, then the city may, in the interests <br /> of safety, initiate action to have the necessary maintenance <br /> performed, or have the monument removed. The finance director <br /> will bill any cost incurred by the city for the maintenance to the lot <br /> owner or the owner's surviving family members or descendants, if <br /> known. <br /> (b) Flowers, shrubs or frees. Flowers, shrubs and trees in the cemetery <br /> are subject to the following: <br /> (1) Flowers, shrubs or trees may be planted and cultivated on any lot <br /> except in the Dixon Addition. <br /> (2) Fresh cut flowers may be placed on any lot, in the mausoleum, or <br /> near the columbarium but they must be removed within two weeks <br /> or when, in the caretaker's opinion, they become unsightly or <br /> detrimental to maintenance. The caretaker may remove flowers not <br /> so removed. <br />
