Summary — RCC 1

Title (Spanish): Para ordenar a la Junta de Planificación de Puerto Rico, autorizar la construcción de una residencia dentro de la Parcela, Catastro, Número 121-047-563-09-000, del pueblo de Fajardo, siempre y cuando se vele por la preservación, restauración y conservación del área.

Bill Number: RCC 1
Classification: Resolution
Introduced: January 2, 2025
Current status (most recent action): Reunión Ejecutiva: Oficina de la Comisión (09/11/2025)

Purpose and intent

The resolution directs the Puerto Rico Planning Board to authorize construction of a residence on a specific parcel in the municipality of Fajardo (Parcel Catastro No. 121-047-563-09-000). The authorization is conditioned on measures to ensure preservation, restoration, and conservation of the surrounding area. The primary intent is to permit one residential development while requiring environmental care for the parcel and environs.

Key provisions

  • Orders the Puerto Rico Planning Board to grant authorization for construction of a residence on the identified parcel in Fajardo.
  • Imposes a condition that the authorization be carried out only insofar as the preservation, restoration and conservation of the area are assured.
  • As a resolution, it appears to direct Executive/administrative action rather than creating a broad statutory change.

Note: The resolution text provided does not specify enforcement mechanisms, design standards, permit types, mitigation measures, or any financial components.

Who is affected

  • Property owner(s) of Parcel 121-047-563-09-000 (primary beneficiary).
  • Puerto Rico Planning Board (directed to act).
  • Municipal government of Fajardo (local land-use and permitting coordination).
  • Local community and environment — particularly stakeholders concerned with conservation, coastal or ecological resources if present on or near the parcel.

Procedural timeline / legislative actions (selected)

  • 2025-01-02: Filed (Radicado)
  • 2025-01-16: Appeared in First Reading; referred to committee(s)
  • 2025-03-21: Committee report filed with amendments; entirillado (report processed); sent to Calendars Committee
  • 2025-03-25: First report withdrawn; matter returned to committee(s)
  • 2025-09-11: Reunión Ejecutiva: Oficina de la Comisión (latest recorded action)

Potential impacts and considerations

  • Environmental oversight: The resolution conditions approval on conservation actions but does not detail required studies (e.g., environmental impact, coastal zone consistency) — such details may be resolved by the Planning Board or other permitting agencies.
  • Administrative precedent: If implemented, this could be a case-specific authorization that may raise questions about consistency with existing land-use plans or regulatory norms.
  • Local concerns: Neighbors, municipal planners, and conservation groups may seek clarity on what “preservation, restoration and conservation” will require in practice.

Next steps / monitoring

  • Review the full text of the resolution for any additional clauses or defined requirements.
  • Monitor subsequent Planning Board actions and any municipal permits issued for the parcel.
  • Watch for further committee or floor actions if the resolution returns to legislative consideration.
