ATTENTION- West Nile Virus Update
The
New York City Department of Health, under Articles 151 of
the NYC Health code, has once again issued a ban on any and
all standing water left within cemeteries.
Please note that
vases or other containers that hold water are a major source
for mosquito reproduction and significantly increase the
risks of transmission of West Nile Virus, therefore
containers placed in Moravian Cemetery will be immediately
removed and disposed of.
In light of the City
Enforced Ban, Moravian Cemetery will once again allow the
placement of artificial flowers. The only items permitted
must be silk or plastic and can only be in the form of a
bouquet. Seasonal items will be removed ONE WEEK after each
holiday. These articles include items purchased through
Moravian Cemetery. NO containers, trinkets, pillows,
balloons, wind chimes, toys, ect. will be allowed. For a
full list of violations, please check our Rules and
Regulations Tab. |
