POLICY STATEMENT-HILLS OF PORTALON-

The Hills of Portalon Equestrian Estates has been blessed with an abundance of primary rainforest and we intend to keep it that way.  As developers of the Hills of Portalon, we plan to place much of the natural forest in one reserve under the name of “Hills of Portalon Reserva S.A.”  It is our desire to preserve and protect these lands indefinitely and permit all property owners to have access to and enjoy the natural beauty of the protected lands. Several natural springs and quebradas (streams) are included in the reserve and need to be protected. We will be installing riding trails and foot paths along and through some of the reserve areas and these trails will be for the sole use of Hills of Portalon Equestrian Estates property owners and their guests.  Any lot sold in the Hills of Portalon Equestrian Estates will receive one stock share of Hills of Portalon Reserva S.A. There shall be only one share per original parcel and the share must be transferred in full to a new owner when the parcel is resold. This also means that lots cannot be redivided.  The initial reserve area will be approximately 10 hectares with additional lands being added as development progresses. The stock share will permit all property owners access to reserve areas by foot or by horseback.
