The project provides for 5,632 pre-placed crypts, 2,376 in-ground cremains, and 729 traditional burial sites, as well as supporting infrastructure, including roads, utilities, landscaping, and irrigation.
Architectural Elements
All features of the development are fully accessible to physically-disabled persons in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act-1990 (ADA) and the Architectural Barriers Act of 1968.
The project includes a committal shelter, storage building, and bier wall. The masonry bonding pattern and beam materials may vary but the classical column structure and clearstory monitor roofing will match existing structures.
