# 11.5.2026 Cemetery Committee

The City of Portsmouth Cemetery Committee meeting, identified by the title as November 5, 2026, reported progress on the Point of Graves project. The City Council had accepted a $240,000 donation, and an additional $11,000 in donations was reported. The survey is complete and an RFP with project specifications is being prepared for bidding, likely this winter. A figure of approximately $455,000 was raised but was not confirmed; the final cost will depend on bids. No contract award or procurement vote occurred. Members also discussed obtaining a locksmith to access a cemetery crypt so an estimate can be prepared, and developing a description for a potential summer intern.
