Meaford's cemeteries are beautiful, calm and tranquil greenspaces with deep roots in our local heritage.
| Cemetery Master Plan |
|
The Municipality of Meaford is currently developing a new strategic master plan for Lakeview Cemetery. This master plan will provide an overall vision for the cemetery for the next 50 years. Working alongside Lee and Associates, the Municipality has identified five key objectives for the master plan which includes; design future burial areas within the cemetery, align future services with existing infrastructure, ensure that the cemetery effectively serves the changing needs of the community, provide updates to cemetery bylaws, and establish a program that supports the maintenance of the landscape, including a long-term infrastructural improvement plan. The purpose of this plan is to ensure that Lakeview Cemetery is sustainable for many years to come and meets the needs of our growing community. We want to hear from you! We invite you, our community members, to participate in the process. You can submit your feedback with our survey and you can attend our upcoming public meet and greet sessions. 1- Fill out the online survey here. The survey will be open to the public from December 1 - 31, 2022 and takes about ten minutes to complete. 2- If you are unable to access the online survey, hard copies are also available and can be picked up and submitted to any of the following locations during regular business hours; the Municipal Administration Office located at 21 Trowbridge Street, the Meaford Public Library located at 11 Sykes Street N, the Meaford and St. Vincent Community Centre located at 151 Collingwood Street W, and the Sydenham Centre located at 458372 Grey County Rd 11, Owen Sound.

Lakeview Cemetery encompasses 29 acres near the urban area of Meaford. It has been in operation since 1868, and it features a beautiful fountain and pond, gazebo, and chapel. 
Duxbury Cemetery was originally part of a neighbouring farm property, and is our oldest cemetery dating back to 1849. At just 2 acres, it has a distinct rural character and is in close proximity to the shores of Georgian Bay.
