In order to preserve and perpetuate the recognized natural beauty of Oakwood Cemetery for the living as well as our beloved deceased, we ask the cooperation of all lot owners and all others whose interests are here to observe the following regulations, which were adopted by the City of Mora.

FRESH CUT FLOWERS -  Placement of fresh cut flowers is permitted at places of interment throughout the growing season. We encourage the free use of our flower containers, which are available at the entrance to the cemetery. NO glass jars, coffee cans, etc., will be allowed.

ANNUAL FLOWERS - The planting of annual flowers will be allowed PROVIDED:
  • In-ground plantings should be surrounded by a 6” dirt area. Cemetery staff will not be responsible for plants damaged by mowers or trimmers.
  • All plantings must be made next to an upright monument, or if no monument exists, the plantings must be made next to a flat marker within the lot.
  • If plantings are to be made in an above ground planter, the planter must be of a single legged type with a mowing border of no less the 6” at ground level.

ARTIFICIAL FLOWERS - Artificial flowers are only allowed from May 15 to June 15 UNLESS they are in an approved planter or placed in the ground in a manner similar to live plantings.

OTHER DECORATIONS -  Wreaths, Crosses, Statues, etc. are NOT allowed except from May 15 to June 15 and 30 days following new interments. After these dates all such items will be removed.
The following are exceptions:
  • Wreaths are allowed during the Christmas season.
  • Government issued Veteran’s markers are allowed all year.

MISCELLANEOUS REGULATIONS - 
  • Any planters which have not been used on a regular basis will be removed.
  • All flowers, live or artificial, must be kept neat in appearance. If, in the opinion of Cemetery Management, such      flowers become objectionable or unsightly, they will be removed.
  • NO decorative rock or decorative fencing of any kind.
  • NO setting of monuments or markers allowed without permission from the Cemetery.
  • The planting of trees, shrubbery, perennial plants, etc. upon lots will not be permitted unless approved by the management and if so placed, the management will not be responsible for them and reserves the right to remove them at any time.

Staff does yearly cleaning of cemetery items in April and September.
