ARTICLE XXIII –  MODIFICATIONS AND AMENDMENTS
1.    Exceptions: Special cases may arise in which the literal enforcement of a rule may impose unnecessary hardship.  The Cemetery therefore, reserves the right, without notice, to make exceptions, suspensions or modifications in any of these Rules and Regulations when, in its judgment, the same appears advisable; and such temporary exception, suspension or modification shall in no way be construed as affecting the general application of such rule.

2.    Emergency: Emergency conditions may necessarily cause a labor and material shortage so that certain rules cannot be strictly enforced. To meet these conditions, the rules where necessary, will be temporarily modified or suspended. Such temporary modification or suspension shall in no way be construed as a waiver nor affect the strict enforcement of the rules upon the conclusion of the emergency.

3.    Amendment: The Cemetery may, and it hereby expressly reserves the right, at any time or times, to adopt new Rules and Regulations, or to amend, alter or repeal any rule, regulation or article, section, paragraph or sentence in these Rules and Regulations. All rules formerly adopted which are contrary to these Rules and Regulations are hereby repealed and declared to be no longer effective.
