Not to worry Yaliu the cemetery is going away. Irvine has no money to build it. In 2 years when Sukhee runs for mayor he will nail the coffin shut on the cemetery. Unless ........

went to city hall last night and make a request to relocate the cemetery.

I almost guarantee that it will be built.  Five Points will pony up the money as a gesture to the community...will probably be tax deductible.

I have to commend all you guys for trying but it's not going to happen.  It would be a political disaster for anyone to go against veterans in this country.

At least we tried.  And whose to say that it won't work just because you think it's not politically correct to be against the cemetery.

As I said, I commend you for your effort.  I don't think its a political correctness issue more as a cultural issue.

I personally have nothing against a veteran cemetery...I am not even sure that it would affect anyone's property values in PP as it is pretty far away.  It's certainly not a "disclosure" issue.

You even say your are not sure if it will affect the PP property value, so it might.  What we are trying to do here is to take that possibility away.
 
So, fill me in. Why is having a veterans' cemetery such a big deal. HOW CLOSE IS TOO CLOSE? Sharing a fence with the homes? On the same street? Half a mile away? 5 miles away? In the same city? County? Portola Springs has homes built on top of Indian graves. There are absolutely, undoubtedly additional human remains under other Irvine & O.C. homes whether you realize it or not. Then, maybe it's not a distance issue but rather a time issue. If the person died last week, not okay. But if they died 300 years ago, now it's okay? At what arbitrary point does it suddenly go from "Not okay" to "OK"? Sounds kinda ridiculous to me.

Anyway, it's not like living next door to a crematorium. I imagine the veterans' cemetery would be done with pride and respect and probably a very peaceful, beautifully-maintained open space. But, hey, I'm not Asian, so...

Talikng about NIMBY.  You obviously don't live in PP or PS nbd so easy for you to say this.

But that's the problem when buying new in an area where you have no guarantees what can be built next to your home.

You should know going in that there could be something built that you don't like (or not built).

Ask anyone who thought a school or a shopping center was supposed to be built in their area.

Another plus for buying in established neighborhoods.
 
then why don't you start a petition to move the cemetery to your nbd instead if you don't think it's a big deal.
