The law also aims to improve the security and tranquility of communities so that residents can achieve healthy living and community interaction. The concept of Access Control implies that the public nature of residential streets is preserved, while residents are allowed to establish means for controlling vehicular traffic and public use, and thus ensure their own safety and cultivate an environment conducive to better living. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="CRIM">CRIM</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Real_estate_in_Puerto_Rico&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: CRIM"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The <a href="/wiki/Municipal_Revenues_Collection_Center" class="mw-redirect" title="Municipal Revenues Collection Center">Municipal Revenues Collection Center</a> (CRIM in Spanish) was created in August 1991 as part of a municipal reform with the primary objective of increasing the powers and economic capacities of Puerto Rico's municipalities. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Solid_waste">Solid waste</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Real_estate_in_Puerto_Rico&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Solid waste"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li>Law No. 24 of 8 June 1962</li> <li>law No. 13 of 2 October 1980</li></ul> <p><b>Reform</b> (to assess or reinforce) </p> <ul><li><b>Property tax</b></li> <li><b>Taxable value</b></li> <li><b>Real estate</b></li> <li><b>Fiscal or economic year</b></li></ul> <p><b>Land Registry Number.</b> Identification number of a property for tax purposes.
