Community Tours of State Veterans Cemetery Proposed Locations

Last July, the Irvine City Council directed staff to study two City-owned properties – the Amended and Restated Development Agreement (ARDA) site and the Golf Course site, located in the Orange County Great Park, for the location of the long-awaited and highly anticipated Southern California Veterans Cemetery. Both properties are within the historic boundaries of the former El Toro Marine Corps Air Station (El Toro MCAS). There is broad consensus this cemetery is needed and should be within these historic boundaries.
