⚠️ Cemetery Storm Damage Update

During last Friday’s severe storm, a massive tree fell at the cemetery on Highway 587, causing damage to tombstones in the area.

The Town of Monticello Public Works crew will be at the cemetery tomorrow morning to begin cleaning up the fallen tree and debris.

We encourage anyone with friends or loved ones buried at the cemetery to please check their gravesites, as tombstones were damaged as a result of the fallen tree.

We appreciate everyone’s patience as our crew works to safely clean up the area.
