Veterans Cemetery coming to Irvine
- Thread starter yaliu07
- Start date
NEW -> Contingent Buyer Assistance Program
TIC wins again.
They don't want a cemetery at such a visible location. TIC flexes its muscle and has the City Council in its back pocket. That's the only reason the Council would turn its back on its own constituents - the Vets and the Asians - who are actually for once in agreement on this issue.
Why? What's gonna happen to Beacon Park residents now that a cemetery will be nearby?
But the streets are built with Chinese characters and a crane (well, you can see anything you want in inkblots, no?)! This should offset whatever bad things a cemetery brings, no?
Here are the Irvine council members:
Choi
Schott
Krom
Lalloway
Shea
After reading the article it seems that only Shea wants the graveyard swap. However she did not vote. If the graveyard swap is what the good people of Irvine want, then they should vote out everyone on the council except Shea.
Wait, who wants the swap? Who are the "good people of Irvine"?
It doesn't matter who you vote for. Eventually they all join the Dark side. Donald Bren is like Chancellor Palpatine.
Ironically, I think the cemetery now has a better chance of getting nixed altogether due to lack of funding. If it had been swapped, it seem like more of a sure thing with the financial backing of Emile Haddad.
It just seems like the folks who don't want the cemetery near Beacon Park, refuse to explain why, and also suggest that everyone agrees with them that it's bad. That's all.
not sure what needs to be explained?
Person asking: do you want to have a house near grave sites?
BP Buyers: No and also because it will decrease home values.

If the cemetery has been in the plans before any Beacon Park home was sold, and it still is, how are home values diminished?
