Critics of a proposed monument at Sid Goldstein Freedom Park in Westminster say the recent addition of secondary memorials detract from the park’s main Vietnam War Memorial.
A
Westminster City Council meeting that started Wednesday night, July 14,
devolved into seven hours of bitter back-and-forth – finally closing at

The
dispute was not over homeless shelters or short-term rentals or any of

that, should it succeed, will consume about 12 square feet of Sid
Goldstein Freedom Park in Little Saigon.
the first is COVID 19 (or DELTA), second => the monument CTQT 1972!
