TITLE 10: LOCAL LAWS
§ 16101
DIVISION 1: FIRST SENATORIAL DISTRICT (ROTA)
§ 16101. Short Title. This Act shall be cited as the “Rota Cultural Heritage and Education Tour Act of 2025.” Source: RLL 24-03, § 2 (Nov. 14, 2025). Commission Comment: RLL 24-03 included the following Findings and Purpose section: Findings and Purpose. The Rota Legislative Delegation finds that the Historic Preservation Office (HPO), under the Department of Community and Cultural Affairs (DCCA), plays a vital role in preserving, promoting, and interpreting Rota’s cultural and historical heritage. With growing public interest in heritage-based tourism and educational experiences, structured guided tours and outreach programs are essential in enhancing cultural awareness, fostering local pride, and supporting preservation efforts. The purpose of this Act is to authorize the HPO to collect reasonable fees for services provided to tourists, visitors, and the general public, thereby supporting and sustaining these programs. However, the Delegation intends that these services remain accessible to local students and government-sponsored educational initiatives. Accordingly, this Act exempts school students and government agencies from fee requirements.
