Southbury Planning Commission Ok's Wooden Building For Crematory:Report

Stone Family Cremation Services have gotten approval to change site modification plans to the process of getting a crematorium approved.

Kevin T. Bennett, architect at Bennett Associates Inc, designed a wood-framed building instead of the original plans for a prefabricated metal building, according to the Republican-American, which added that the wood building would have blue-gray siding with a shingled roof.

The newly designed building will be 4,200 square feet, smaller than the original proposal.

The building will be located on 125 Bullet Hill Road and hours would be from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., the Rep-Am reports.

There will be four cremation chambers total, two for humans and two for pets and the crematory would mainly serve funeral homes.

The Lovetere-Stone’s operate Munson-Lovetere Funeral Homes in Southbury and Woodbury and they will operate the crematory.
