RCC 138 – Summary

Overview

RCC 138 is a resolution introduced on May 19, 2025. It directs the Committee of Evaluation and Disposition of Real Property Assets (the committee created by Law No. 26-2017, as amended, known as the “Fiscal Plan Compliance Act”) to evaluate, under applicable law and regulations, the transfer, usufruct, lease for a nominal amount of $1.00, or any other permissible disposition under that law, to the domestic nonprofit Voluntarios Ex Residentes y Residentes Castillo Corp. The property in question is the facilities of the former Castillo Elementary School in the Municipality of Mayagüez. The purpose is to establish there a holistic and integral community development project that guarantees the provision of social welfare programs and community economic development initiatives.

Purpose and Intent

  • To authorize the Evaluation and Disposition Committee to assess possible disposition of the Castillo School facilities to the named nonprofit organization.
  • To pursue a development project aimed at holistic community well-being, combining social welfare and economic/community development programs.
  • The disposition would be evaluated in accordance with Law 26-2017 (and amendments) and its implementing regulations.

Key Provisions and Concepts

  • The bill tasks the Evaluation and Disposition Committee with evaluating a transfer, usufruct, lease for nominal consideration ($1.00), or other legally contemplated instruments under Law 26-2017.
  • The prospective recipient is the nonprofit corporation Voluntarios Ex Residentes y Residentes Castillo Corp., which would hold the title or rights to the facilities of the former Castillo Elementary School in Mayagüez.
  • The intended outcome is the establishment of a development project on the site that supports community welfare programs and economic/development initiatives, benefiting the local community.

Affected Parties and Property

  • Primary property involved: the facilities of the former Castillo Elementary School, Mayagüez.
  • Affected entities: the community in Mayagüez, the nonprofit Voluntarios Ex Residentes y Residentes Castillo Corp., and stakeholders connected to social welfare and community development efforts.

Procedural Status and Timeline

  • Introduction: May 19, 2025.
  • Legislative actions to date:
    • May 19, 2025: Filed/Radicado.
    • May 27, 2025: Appears in Primera Lectura de la Cámara (First Reading).
    • May 27, 2025: Referred to one or more committees for consideration.
  • Classification: Resolution (not a legislative statute at this stage); procedural step indicating intent to study and possibly advise on disposition rather than immediate enactment.

Potential Impact

  • If approved, the committee’s favorable disposition could enable a formal disposition of the property to the nonprofit under terms aligned with Law 26-2017.
  • The project would potentially advance social welfare services and local economic/community development in Mayagüez, leveraging a repurposed public facility.
  • The exact terms (transfer, usufruct, lease, etc.) would depend on subsequent committee analysis and compliance with applicable statutes and regulations.
