Veteran Cemetery Finds Home in Anaheim Hills
ANAHEIM HILLS, Calif. Officials and veterans gathered July 1 to celebrate the claiming of land for a controversial veteran cemetery in Anaheim Hills.
“Today Anaheim is open to veterans,” said Anaheim Councilmember Trevor O’Neil. “I’m bringing a resolution to Anaheim city council later this month to support the veteran cemetery and commit the City of Anaheim [to a] proactive role in helping to bring this project to fruition.”
The announcement came about a week after plans to build the memorial grounds in Irvine fizzled. Following years of reports and studies, Irvine city council on June 22 took no action to construct a Veteran’s Memorial Park and Cemetery at the Orange County Great Park.
