Monuments may be placed on any lot. An improvement permit is required before setting any marker or monument. Monuments should not be more than 6 feet in height.
Flag poles are permitted but the flag pole needs to be at the head of the grave site. The City of Athens Cemetery Department will remove flags and properly dispose of them, when they are so worn that they are no longer fit to serve as a symbol of our country. The City of Athens will not replace any worn flags that it removes.
