The Cemetery Board of Managers was first appointed by the Mayor of Galva in 1918. The Mayor appoints three members to the Board with the advice and consent of the City Council. These members consist of a President, a Clerk, and a Treasurer.
The Cemetery Board of Managers is authorized to accept gifts or donations of $50 or more, to be held in perpetual trust for the care and upkeep of the cemetery. Unneeded property donations may be converted to cash and invested for the cemetery’s benefit. The principal of the perpetual care fund must remain untouched, with only the investment income used for expenses.
