Bill Summary

Amend The South Carolina Code Of Laws By Amending Section 12-51-40, Relating To Default On Payment Of Property Taxes, So As To Remove A Requirement For Restricted Delivery; And By Amending Section 12-51-120, Relating To Notice Of Approaching End Of Redemption Period, So As To Remove A Requirement For Restricted Delivery.

AI Summary

This bill modifies South Carolina law concerning property tax collection by removing the requirement for "restricted delivery" when sending delinquent tax notices and notices about the end of the redemption period. "Restricted delivery" is a postal service option that ensures a mailed item is delivered only to the addressee or an authorized agent. By removing this requirement, the bill aims to streamline the process of notifying taxpayers about unpaid property taxes and the impending expiration of their right to reclaim their property after a tax sale, making it easier for tax officials to complete these notifications.
