The Mausoleum and roof -top burials were all approved
uses, built and constructed consistent with approved
plans and specifications.
No laws, CUP conditions, or municipal code violations
have been found or alleged with respect to the
construction or operation of the Mausoleum.
Green Hills has displayed a clear willingness to voluntarily
respond to the concerns raised by its neighbors.

Green Hills has identified a variety of buffering and screening
improvements that can be implemented on the Mausoleum
roof, which we have grouped into the following categories:
Immediate Improvements: Improvements that Green Hills is
prepared to institute immediately, and that do not require
additional analysis or review.
Mechanical Improvements: Improvements that Green Hills
believes it can implement in the near future, but require
additional evaluation by Green Hills and the City.
Long -Term Improvements: Improvements that Green Hills
believes can be implemented, but that require additional
analysis, consideration, and may require approval by the City.
