RCC 153 — Summary

Overview

RCC 153 is a resolution introduced in Puerto Rico’s Legislature on June 13, 2025. The measure directs the Committee of Evaluation and Disposition of Real Property (created by Law 26-2017, as amended—the “Law of Compliance with the Fiscal Plan”) to evaluate, in accordance with the applicable law and regulations, the transfer or conveyance of title of the former Emiliano Figueroa Elementary School to the Municipality of Loíza. The goal is to enable the development of social-impact projects and the provision of public services that benefit surrounding communities, with other related purposes noted.

Purpose and Intent

  • To authorize and instruct the Property Evaluation Committee to assess the feasibility and mechanics of transferring the property currently associated with the former Emiliano Figueroa Elementary School.
  • To ensure any transfer complies with Law 26-2017 (Fiscal Plan Compliance Law) and its regulations.
  • To enable Loíza to use the site for projects and services that would promote community development and welfare in the Piñones area and broader Loíza jurisdiction.

Key Provisions

  • Directs the Committee of Evaluation and Disposition of Real Property to perform the evaluation.
  • Requires adherence to the provisions of Law 26-2017 (and amendments) and the committee’s governing regulations.
  • Specifies the property in question: the former Emiliano Figueroa Elementary School, located at Carretera Estatal PR-187, Km 8.2, Sector Piñones, Barrio Torrecilla Baja, Loíza, Puerto Rico.
  • Targets transferencia/traspaso de título to the Municipality of Loíza for public-interest uses (social-impact projects and public services) that benefit adjacent communities.
  • Indicates “other related purposes” may accompany the primary objective.

Affected Parties and Impacts

  • Primary party: Municipality of Loíza, which would potentially receive ownership of the property for community-focused use.
  • Original property holder(s) and the Commonwealth’s real property framework, governed by Law 26-2017.
  • Local residents and surrounding communities in Piñones and Torrecilla Baja, who could benefit from new or expanded public services and social programs stemming from a municipal-initiated project on the site.
  • The measure could influence municipal planning, service delivery, and fiscal planning in Loíza, subject to the outcome of the committee’s evaluation and any subsequent actions.

Procedural Timeline and Status

  • Introduced: June 13, 2025.
  • First Reading: June 17, 2025.
  • Referred to Committee(s): June 17, 2025.
  • Current classification: Resolution (non-binding guidance or request to act) pending committee review and potential further legislative action.

Notes

  • As a resolution, RCC 153 seeks to prompt review and possible disposition actions rather than enact binding statutory changes. The final disposition would depend on committee findings, compliance with fiscal and regulatory requirements, and any subsequent legislative steps.
