Respicio Ray Tenorio AN ACT TO ADD A NEW ยง80105 (c) TO CHAPTER 80 OF TITLE 21, GUAM CODE ANNOTATED, RELATIVE TO THE TRANSFER OF PROPERTY UNDER THE JURISDICTION OF THE PORT AUTHORITY OF GUAM TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE GUAM ANCESTRAL LANDS COMMISSION. 1 BE IT ENACTED BY THE PEOPLE OF GUAM: 2 Section 1. Legislative Findings and Intent. I Liheslatura finds that 3 certain ancestral lands in the municipalities of Pitt, Sumay and Agat were 4 condemned under Civil Action No. 5-49 by the Naval Government of Guam l 1 creating the Apra Harbor Resetvation Boundary. Eventually, the United States 2 quitclaimed portions of the Apra Harbor Reservation to the Government of Guam 3 in December 1984 containing certain parcels, with eventual transfer to the 4 Commercial Port of Guam, now known as the Port Authority of Guam (P AG), for 5 development. In formal conferences and legislative session meetings between the 6 PAG and I Liheslatura (the Legislature), it has been stated by the PAG board, 7 management, and personnel that the P AG does not have any future plans for the 8 development or use of certain portions of the parcels under their jurisdiction. 9 Therefore, I Liheslatura intends to transfer such land parcels and properties 10 to the Guam Ancestral Lands Commission so that the Guam Ancestral Lands 11 Commission can and shall proceed with the return of such land parcels and 12 properties to the original landowners or their estates, pursuant to the Commission's 13 enabling legislation and mandates. 14 Section 2. A new ยง80105(c) is hereby added to ยง80105 of Chapter 80, 15 Title 21, Guam Code Annotated, to read as follows: 16 "( c) Portions of Parcel 1 South of Route 18 and contiguous to the 17 North of Apra Harbor Parcel 6, also abutting Marine Corps Drive on the 18 east, specifically original lot: No. 166, originally owned by the Estates of 19 Jose C. Leon Guerrero; Joaquin C. Leon Guerrero; Gil C. Leon Guerrero; 20 Antonio C. Leon Guerrero; Filomena C. Leon Guerrero; Wenceslao C. Leon 21 Guerrero and William C. Leon Guerrero. The property shall be transferred 22 and shall be deeded to the Guam Ancestral Lands Commission within thirty 23 (30) days of the effective date of this Act. The Guam Ancestral Lands 24 Commission shall within one hundred eighty (l 80) days dispose of the land 25 parcel and lot transferred by this Act in a manner consistent with and 26 pursuant to its enabling legislation and its mandates. All pre-condemnation 27 roads, easements and bull cart trails shall remain as easements for public 2 1 access and utilities. The property shall be zoned "A" 2 Agricultural zone." 3 Section 3. The Department of Land Management shall plot, plan, design, 4 and provide within sixty ( 60) days of enactment an aerial overlay map delineating 5 all easements, bull-cart trails, and public access as to determine such access 6 or easements' location in relation to the return subject lot so that no lot is 7 landlocked. The overlay shall show all original lot lines generally. 8 Section 4. Severability. Jf any the provisions of this Act or the 9 application thereof to any person or circumstance is held invalid, such invalidity 10 shall not affect any other provision or application of this Act which can be given 11 effect without the invalid provision or application, and to this end the provisions of 12 this Act are severable. 3
