Lease for Yigo Raceway Property Under Review by Attorney General

Angela Camacho, Acting Director of the CHamoru Land Trust Commission, reported that the 20-year lease for the Yigo Raceway property is under review at the Office of the Attorney General. The lease was finalized in August and submitted to the OAG, but no update has been provided despite requests. Camacho and Commissioner Fabrienne Respicio stated that formal notice would be sent to the Guam Motorsports Association preventing them from using the property until the lease is signed by the attorney general and governor. John Burch, Jr., vice president of the Guam Motorsports Association, clarified that a recent event flyer found on social media was for a private group meeting at Grease Monkey Drive-In, not affiliated with the association.

The status of the lease review affects the operational use of the Yigo Raceway property. The review process dictates whether the Guam Motorsports Association can legally enter or use the raceway until the lease is officially signed. This regulatory status impacts local commercial activities related to motorsports and land use.
