  "summary_es": "Esta ley, emitida por la Asamblea Legislativa en 1933, declara de utilidad pública la construcción de una plaza pública en el distrito de San Miguel Sur de Santo Domingo, provincia de Heredia. La norma ordena al Poder Ejecutivo la expropiación de los terrenos necesarios según los planos elaborados por la Secretaría de Fomento, con el fin de establecer un espacio público de recreo y ornato. Se autoriza la inversión de hasta quince mil colones para cubrir los costos de expropiación e indemnización. La ley refleja una intervención estatal temprana en la planificación urbana y la creación de áreas verdes para el beneficio comunitario, aunque sin conexión directa con normativa ambiental moderna. El texto es breve y se limita a los aspectos expropiatorios y presupuestarios, sin referencias a protección ecológica o sostenibilidad.",
  "summary_en": "This law, enacted by the Legislative Assembly in 1933, declares the construction of a public plaza in the district of San Miguel Sur in Santo Domingo, Heredia province, to be of public utility. It orders the Executive Branch to expropriate the necessary land according to plans drawn up by the Ministry of Development, with the purpose of establishing a public space for recreation and beautification. It authorizes an investment of up to fifteen thousand colones to cover expropriation and compensation costs. The law reflects early state intervention in urban planning and the creation of green areas for community benefit, but lacks direct connection to modern environmental regulations. The text is brief and limited to expropriation and budgetary aspects, without references to ecological protection or sustainability.",
