The Factory Point Cemetery was transferred from an independently elected board to the Selectboard in 2009 by Town Meeting (Article 6). The Advisory Committee on Cemeteries is responsible for advising the Selectboard on policy, planning, finance, operations and other matters related to the Factory Point Cemetery. The Cemetery is maintained by the Department of Public Works.
