  • Jurisdiction: Puerto Rico
  • Bill Number: RCC 306
  • Session: 2025-2028
  • Title / Purpose (as stated): To order the Department of Agriculture and the Land Authority to proceed with the release of the restrictions and preservation and indivision conditions previously imposed and annotated as provided by Law No. 107 of July 3, 1974, as amended, on the real property identified as Lot 11 in the subdivision plan of the El Melón estate, located in the Palmarejo barrio of the municipal jurisdiction of Coamo, Puerto Rico.

  • Action History:
    • March 10, 2026: Filed (Radicado)
    • March 12, 2026: Appears in First Reading in the House
    • March 12, 2026: Referred to relevant committees

Purpose and Intent

  • The bill directs two government agencies—the Department of Agriculture and the Land Authority—to lift or release existing restrictions and the conditions related to preservation and indivision that were previously imposed and annotated under Law No. 107 (1974), as amended.
  • The ultimate objective is to facilitate the segregation and subsequent partition (division) of the identified estate (Lot 11 on the El Melón subdivision plan) so that the property can be divided among the heirs of the original owners.

Key Provisions and Changes (as implied by the title and purpose)

  • Authority to release restrictions: The Department of Agriculture and the Puerto Rico Land Authority would be required to take official action to remove or release:
    • Preservation restrictions (likely environmental or agricultural preservation conditions)
    • Indivision conditions (restrictions related to ownership in common ownership, preventing immediate subdivision)
  • Subject property: The specific parcel identified as Lot 11 in the subdivision plan of the El Melón estate, located in Palmarejo, Coamo.
  • Historical ownership context: The parcel originally acquired by Don Santos Correa David and Doña Luz Palmira Alvarado Rodríguez (now deceased) for the purpose of enabling partition among their heirs.
  • Outcome of action: Allow the heirs to pursue a legal and orderly segregation/partition of the parcel.

Affected Parties and Impacts

  • Directly Affected Parties:
    • Heirs of Don Santos Correa David and Doña Luz Palmira Alvarado Rodríguez.
    • Potential buyers or subsequent owners who may acquire subdivided portions of Lot 11.
  • Institutions Involved:
    • Puerto Rico Department of Agriculture (Departamento de Agricultura)
    • Puerto Rico Land Authority (Autoridad de Tierras)
  • Broader Impacts:
    • Enables the legal subdivision of the estate, which could affect land use, tax assessment, and future development plans within Coamo.
    • Clarifies and expedites a property partition by removing constraints tied to preservation and indivision, subject to compliance with other applicable laws and regulatory approvals.

Procedural and Timeline Aspects

  • Current status: In the legislative pipeline.
  • Upcoming steps:
    • Committee review and potential amendments.
    • Debates and votes in the Chamber (and potentially the Senate, if applicable) and eventual signature into law.
  • Key dates in action history:
    • March 10, 2026: Bill filed (Radicado)
    • March 12, 2026: First Reading and referral to committees

Notes

  • The summary reflects the bill’s stated objective to remove certain encumbrances so that the heirs can proceed with partitioning Lot 11. Actual implementation would depend on the bill’s passage, any required regulatory procedures, and alignment with Law No. 107 (1974) as amended, plus other land-use and environmental regulations.

If you’d like, I can tailor this summary to emphasize potential fiscal impacts, environmental considerations, or comparative analysis with similar past measures.
