Whereas, in 2016, a Preservation Master Plan was created for the Bridge Street
Cemetery, and a recommendation within this plan was the phased replacement of the Cemetery
border fence as described on pages 25-27, and an anonymous donor wishes to provide necessary
funding for Phase 1 of this fence replacement above and beyond the city’s appropriation of
$25,000 for cemetery improvements in FY2021;
Ordered that,
The Northampton City Council gratefully appropriates the donation of a gift to the City
of Northampton of funds up to $100,000 to be used toward the replacement of approximately
880 linear feet of fence at the Bridge Street Cemetery, to include two gates, in accordance with
the recommendations within the Preservation Master Plan for the Bridge Street Cemetery and
with Massachusetts General Law Chapter 44, Section 53 A (Grants and gifts; acceptance and
