Section 21080.62 is added to the Public Resources Code, to read:
(a) This division does not apply to any activity or approval necessary for the completion of the public and state veterans cemetery in Gypsum Canyon in the County of Orange, known as the Gypsum Canyon Veterans Cemetery if both of the following conditions are met:
(1) The public and state veterans cemetery in Gypsum Canyon is a less intensive land use than the project analyzed in the 2005 certified environmental impact report Mountain Park Specific Plan Amendment.
(2) The Gypsum Canyon Cemetery Project Development Project No. 2020-00204 Addendum to the 2005 Certified Environmental Impact Report No. 331 analyzed the impacts of the public and state veterans cemetery in Gypsum Canyon.
(b) This section shall remain in effect only until January 1, 2030, and as of that date is repealed.
This act is an urgency statute necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, or safety within the meaning of Article IV of the California Constitution and shall go into immediate effect. The facts constituting the necessity are: The County of Orange is the largest county in the state without a veterans cemetery and requires immediate legislative action to facilitate the construction of the Gypsum Canyon Veterans Cemetery. In order to ensure the honorable and respectful treatment of veterans in the County of Orange in the county they called home, it is necessary that this act take effect immediately.
