The Eureka Springs Cemetery Commission apparently didn’t follow Arkansas law when it went into executive session twice over a two-day period, terminating one employee and — according to documents — promoting another.
The commission conducted four special meetings May 17-18 in the lobby of The Auditorium, the main topics being the roles of sexton and groundskeeper at the cemetery.
In the end, and with no public explanation, cemetery sexton and head groundskeeper David Helms was terminated and part-time groundskeeper Ozzy Duarte received a promotion to a full-time role.
The Eureka Springs Cemetery Commission has unanimously approved a contractor to build a new office building on cemetery grounds.
In a May 18 special meeting, the commission voted to accept a winning bid from Jeff Gay with Rockwood Construction of Eureka Springs as the contractor for the construction of the building.
Rockwood’s bid of $47,520 was selected over a bid of $52,421.99 from Dame Good Construction, LLC of Berryville.
Gay told the commission via conference call that he hoped to get work started on the new building in upcoming weeks. The Eureka Springs Cemetery Commission has unanimously approved a contractor to build a new office building on cemetery grounds.
