City Manager Office <br />www.santa-ana.org/cm <br />Item # 30 <br />City of Santa Ana <br />20 Civic Center Plaza, Santa Ana, CA 92701 <br /> Staff Report <br />September 7, 2021 <br />TOPIC: Resolution Supporting the Orange County Veterans Cemetery <br />AGENDA TITLE: <br />Resolution Supporting the Orange County Veterans Cemetery in Anaheim Hills <br />RECOMMENDED ACTION <br />At the request of Mayor Sarmiento, consider adopting a resolution supporting the Orange <br />County Veterans Cemetery in Anaheim Hills and encouraging federal, state, and local <br />government support for this much-needed project. <br />DISCUSSION <br />The County of Orange has allocated 200 acres of County-owned land at Gypsum Canyon <br />near the intersection of State Route 91 State Route 241 in Anaheim Hills. The property <br />at Gypsum Canyon has been deeded to the Orange County Cemetery District by the <br />County of Orange for the purpose of building a veterans cemetery. The Anaheim Hills <br />site, with its breathtaking view of rolling hills, will become a sacred burial ground as a final <br />resting place for the men and women who have honorably served their country. This <br />Hallowed Ground will also provide for the display of historical artifacts from the former <br />Marine Corps Air Station, El Toro, which closed in 1999, as history and a testament of the <br />selfless service that veterans have contributed to the National Defense. As the County of <br />Orange has the third largest population of veterans in the state, and sixth largest in the <br />nation, it is important to honor and respect the men and women who have served our <br />country and who deserve to be buried in Orange County. A Veterans cemetery in <br />Anaheim Hills will provide the interment needs for Veterans for the next 100 years. <br />ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT <br />There is no environmental impact associated with this action. <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />There is no fiscal impact associated with this action. <br />EXHIBIT(S) <br />1.
