Anyone who has left personal items on a grave in 91原创 Township and wants to retrieve them has until April 11 to do so.

An annual cleanup of what the Township calls 鈥渞estricted adornments鈥� will be held on that date.

There are three cemeteries owned and run by the Township 鈥� Fort 91原创 Cemetery, at 23105 St. Andrew鈥檚 Ave., 91原创 Lawn Cemetery, at 4393 208 St., and Murrayville Cemetery at 21405 44 Ave.

While it鈥檚 common to leave flowers on graves, people also leave other items, many of which can鈥檛 be as easily cleared away, or which don鈥檛 break down over time.

鈥淎s adornments and decorations are placed and accumulate over time, they break or deteriorate creating a challenging and unsafe situation for maintenance staff who cut the lawns and the public who visit the cemetery,鈥� said a Township statement about the upcoming cleanup.

The Township is asking anyone who has left a personal item on a Township cemetery grave to retrieve them before the April 11 date.

Items collected on April 11 will be held for 60 days to allow people time to retrieve them.
