New board of trustees inducted for ownership of San Jose Cemetery II.

A new board of trustees has been officially established for the ownership of San Jose Cemetery II. Under agreement with the Montopolis Neighborhood CDC, the Trustees of the San Jose Cemeterio (San Jose Cemeterio Trusteeship) has now formally been created.

The San Jose Cemeterio Trusteeship is the guardianship and trusteeship of and who owns San Jose II Cemetery. The new board of trustees are now responsible for representing the management, care and maintenance of two southeast Austin cemeteries which are San Jose Cemetery I and San Jose II Cemetery. The names of those trustees are: Joaquin Rodriguez, Esmeralda Muniz, Frank Monreal and Rosa Moncada.

San Jose Cemeterio Trusteeship was organized in an effort to reestablish the historical relationship and connection between San Jose Cemetery I and San Jose II Cemetery.

San Jose Cemeterio Trusteeship has expressed their desire to reopen this cemetery for new burials in the future. Their plan is to reopen San Jose Cemetery II for new burials again for the Montopolis community. Eventual cleanup and restoration work will soon follow.
