Description | The Nebraska Veterans Cemetery at Grand Island is the second state-administered veterans cemetery and the fourth veteran's cemetery in Nebraska. This cemetery will incorporate the existing seven-acre historic Grand Island Veterans Memorial Cemetery and will include an additional 20 acres. Senator Dan Quick introduced Legislative Bill (LB) 911 in 2020, which was unanimously approved by the Nebraska Legislature, created the new state cemetery, and changed the previous name of the Grand Island Veterans Memorial Cemetery to The Nebraska Veterans Cemetery at Grand Island. The project would construct the first phase of the Nebraska Veterans Cemetery at Grand Island. The site is approximately 30 acres located at the northeast corner of Webb Road and Capital Avenue in Grand Island, Nebraska, and will encompass the existing veterans home cemetery. The lands to the north and east are currently undeveloped and used for agriculture. Purpose and Objectives Provide necessary Cemetery access for the unserved veteran population while also enhancing the existing Grand Island Veterans Memorial Cemetery. The planned service area of the cemetery spans a 75-mile radius around Grand Island, but the cemetery will also accept veterans from across the area. Grand Island is located between the two existing National Veterans Cemeteries near Maxwell and Springfield filling a need to an unserved veteran population within the 75-mile radius of approximately 23,000 veterans. Proposed Site: The new cemetery shall be located on the northeast corner of North Webb Road and West Capitol Avenue, on property which once was part of the previous Grand Island Veterans Home (GIVH). This location has been identified by the City of Grand Island for future cemetery use and additional roadway access. The existing Grand Island Veterans Memorial Cemetery shall be fully incorporated into the Nebraska Veterans Cemetery at Grand Island.
