Town Offered Seven Acres for Elk Run Under Koogler Plan
The town could gain seven acres of cemetery-adjacent land on Newtown Road at no cost for the Koogler housing project. Officials note each acre could add 1,000 grave spaces, potentially yielding seven million dollars if all new spaces were bought and used, though annual use averages about 50 spaces.
