🇺🇸 Northern Utah is finally getting its own Veterans Cemetery. 🇺🇸
On June 2nd, Washington Terrace City Council unanimously approved a rezone this week for a 102-acre Veterans Cemetery — the first in Weber, Davis, or Box Elder County.
Until now, the only state veterans cemetery in Utah has been all the way down in Bluffdale.
Here's what veterans and families should know:
🔔 Veterans receive a free plot and headstone
👨👩👧 Eligible spouses and dependent children can also be interred
🎖️ Designed as a place for the community to gather on Memorial Day and Veterans Day
🏗️ Construction expected to begin January 2027 with estimated completion in January 2028.
💰 90% federally funded — the land was donated by a private landowner.
The cemetery is expected to serve around 300 families per year.
An estimated 40,000 veterans live in Davis County and the counties north — this one's for them.
