More burial space for Guam families
The law transfers control of 45,793-square-meter Lot No. 258 in Piti to Guam’s Department of Parks and Recreation. The Department of Land Management must issue ownership title to the parks department to expand Vicente A. Limtiaco Memorial Park. The expansion aims to add about five years of burial capacity. Crypt construction gets priority, and the parks department cannot use the land for other programs or duties. The title must include restrictions that automatically return ownership to Guam’s government if the land serves a different purpose. The transfer is exempt from land appraisal requirements. Within 120 days after enactment, the parks and public works departments must sign an agreement assigning development, operation, and care duties. It must allocate staff, equipment, and funding for cemetery upkeep and burials, and set maintenance, repair, and improvement schedules and standards. Within 10 days after signing, a copy must go to the Speaker, Legislative Secretary, and Department of Land Management. Within one year after enactment, the parks department must present a master plan and funding needs to the Legislature. The law provides no specific funding amount or direct household payment.
