After the Irvine City Council voted 4-1 in July to reject the state-approved site for a veterans’ cemetery in the city, in direct conflict with a bill approved by the state assembly, supporters of the project gave their assurances that a new site would be found.

The bill, AB-368, was on its way to the state senate floor for a vote after being approved by multiple committees and has since been suspended.
