The Puerto Rico Planning Board gave the go-ahead to more than $3.1 billion in location permits for residential and tourism-related development projects that are expected to generate more than 35,000 jobs and boost the economy, agency chief Rubén Flores- Marzán said Monday.
In the six-month period between Dec. 1, 2010 and June 3, 2011, the Permits Management Office has received 23,112 permit applications online, of which 71 percent have been processed, the head of that agency said during a public hearing Tuesday.
