The bill establishes the Uniform Unlawful Restrictions in Land Records Act, which allows property owners to remove unlawful restrictions from land records. It defines key terms such as "amendment," "governing instrument," and "unlawful restriction," which includes prohibitions based on race, religion, or other personal characteristics that violate state or federal law. Property owners can submit an amendment to the recorder to remove these restrictions, and governing bodies of associations can also amend governing instruments to eliminate unlawful restrictions without needing a vote from members.
The bill outlines the process for recording amendments, including the necessary information that must be included, such as the owner's name and property details. It also specifies that the recorder is not liable for recording these amendments and emphasizes the importance of promoting uniformity in the application of the law across jurisdictions. Additionally, the act modifies certain provisions of the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, ensuring that it does not conflict with existing federal regulations regarding electronic notices.
