Site work for a religious / funeral development in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Conceptual plans call for site work for a religious / funeral development.

A FY23 appropriation of $250,000 includes $150,000 to fund the design of improvements identified in the Cambridge Cemetery Master Plan, focusing on opportunities to optimize space for burials and improve the Cambridge Cemetery over the next number of years. The plan includes a review of available areas throughout the Cemetery that are too small for traditional full burial lots, and a consideration of alternatives such as cremation burial areas (niches, scattering areas) and an aesthetically pleasing memorial wall. There will also be opportunities to beautify the Cemetery by possibly narrowing roads, installing new plantings, and adding trees. In addition, $100,000 in FY23 will address a slope failure that occurred on a slope on the east of the Cambridge Cemetery. Public Works, working through its consultant, has evaluated the area and developed several options for slope stabilization. $100,000 will be used to complete this construction. This project is included in the city's FY 2024-2027 Capital Improvement Program. As of September 19, 2022, further details regarding design and construction timelines have not been identified. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP).
