Bill Summary
Amend The South Carolina Code Of Laws By Amending Section 27-30-130, Relating To The Enforceability Of Governing Documents, Recording Requirements, Rules, Regulations, And Amendments, So As To Require Certain Homeowners Association Documents To Be Subject To Section 30-5-30.
AI Summary
This bill amends Section 27-30-130 of the South Carolina Code of Laws, specifically subsection (D), to change the requirements for recording certain Homeowners Association (HOA) documents. Previously, rules, regulations, bylaws, and amendments to these documents were exempt from the witness and acknowledgment requirements found in Section 30-5-30. This bill removes that exemption, meaning that these HOA documents, when recorded, will now need to comply with the witness and acknowledgment requirements outlined in Section 30-5-30, which generally pertain to the proper execution and notarization of legal documents to ensure their validity and prevent fraud.
