The fate of the proposed Orange County Veterans Cemetery is once again uncertain after the state of California announced that it would conduct a review of two potential sites in Irvine and make the final decision on its own.

After years of negotiations, the Irvine City Council in May approved a location for the cemetery at the former El Toro Marine Corps Air Station, a site supported by a voter initiative that collected nearly 20,000 signatures.
