Puerto Rico's permit system reform is now before the governor. esnoticiapr.com reports that the Governor's Office received the Senate's Substitute Project to Senate Projects 1173 and 1183, known as the permit system reform, at 5:39 pm on a Friday.^[1] The delivery follows work in the Senate on a wider permitting overhaul. The San Juan Daily Star reports that on Oct 7 the Senate Commission on Innovation, Reform, and Appointments issued a positive report approving the proposed Código de Planificación y Permisos.^[2] Both measures sit on the same thread: changing how permits work in Puerto Rico. The commission's report and the project now in the Governor's Office are separate steps reported by different outlets, and the facts here do not spell out how the two connect.
