Paypal.me/palmasDelmar Palmas Animal Welfare was organized to address problem of the stray and abandoned pets in Puerto Rico . This year, to date, over 75 pets have been pulled from the streets in this community alone, 100, in total, and costing us on average 1000.00 per pet. We vetted to strict protocols, which includes everything from shots, spay, neuter, to heart worm treatment ,surgeries, medicines and boarding, very often long term boarding. We still, 1.5 years later, have a rescued abandoned pet we named Ariel, found in an abandoned pool in Palmas, residing in the shelter, until she finds a home. El faro de Los Animales has been instrumental in help- ing us re home and provide long term care for Ariel and many others. As mentioned, this is costing Palmas Animal Welfare close to 100,000.00 in a year, with so much left too do, and can only continue with your donations. Pets , roaming and procreating is not something any of us want in our community, and completing families , with our rescues, is the way we complete each process. Thank you all for continued support in the mission to have our community and outside, stray animal free. Questions Text 954-274-6722 Facebook: Palmas Animal Welfare FIVE STARS Ing.

ARCHITECTURAL STANDARDS By Arq. Raúl Rivera-Ortiz, AIA, NCARB Architectural Consultant to the ARB revisited The Architectural Review Board (ARB) is currently revising its Design and Development Guidelines. True to its main purpose – to protect and preserve the nature, elegance and the architectural uniqueness of the Palmas del Mar community – this revision focuses on clarifying and updating the architectural standards required by the Deed of Amended and Restated Declaration of Rights, Restrictions, Conditions and Constitution of Restrictive Covenants, dated July 20, 2020. The ARB believes that compliance with the architectural standards should not impede the creative use of modern architecture. Although the requirement for use of slanted clay tiled roofs will remain, the revised guidelines will allow the proper incorporation of photovoltaic panels and skylights within the tiled roofs and the use of gutters that do not hide the tile edge. A new chart guiding the proportion of voids to solids will allow for larger openings to further enjoy the spectacular views while maintaining the reading of volumes, rather than parallel planes. The expression of volume is further reinterpreted to allow for corner windows and the creative use of glass in defining volumetric shapes. While the use of the preferred earth tone colors will still be required, the standard will be amplified to define additional color hues and clarify the definitions of allowable main body, trim and accent colors. Architects will be encouraged to use creatively authorized materials, while respecting the enchanting character of the neighborhoods and the entire community. The ARB must be seen as a facilitator for orderly development. This group of professionals is here to help owners and designers achieve their dreams without disturbing the Palmas character we have all cherished for years. “Although the requirement for use of slanted clay tiled roofs will remain, the revised guidelines will allow the proper incorporation of photovoltaic panels and skylights within the tiled roofs and the use of gutters that do not hide the tile edge.”
