Bill > H5068

This bill allows homeowners and tenants in South Carolina to display political signs on their property, overriding any existing homeowner association (HOA) rules that might prohibit them, with some exceptions. Specifically, individuals can put up signs from thirty days before an election until five days after it, as long as the signs are not placed in common areas accessible to everyone in the community. However, HOAs can still create and enforce reasonable rules regarding the size of these signs (which must be at least 24 by 18 inches), the number of signs allowed (at least two per candidate, party, or issue), and where signs can be placed in common areas. An HOA can also restrict signs from being displayed outside the specified election period. A "political sign" is defined as any sign supporting or opposing a candidate, political party, or a public question.
