		The Municipal Reform of 1991 is composed of four laws which alter the relationship between the regional municipal governments and the central Government of Puerto Rico.
		This decentralization of functions and powers from the central government to the municipalities is achieved through two mechanisms: the concession of new powers to the municipality (land use planning and taxing authority, for example) and the transfer of specific tasks by contract or agreement from Commonwealth government agencies to the municipalities.
		Once a Plan is approved, the law permits the municipality to solicit the transfer, from the Planning Board and the Permits and Regulations Administration (ARPE, by its initials in Spanish), of some of the faculties related to the planning and permitting processes in its territory.
