The bill H. 4050 aims to amend the South Carolina Code of Laws by introducing definitions and references related to "concurrency programs" in zoning ordinances and regulations. Specifically, it amends Section 6-29-720 to include "concurrency programs," which condition the approval of land development activities on the adequacy of public facilities and services. This section outlines the requirements for these programs, including ensuring that public facilities are adequate to support development and allowing local governing authorities to require contributions from developers to offset impacts on facilities and services.

Additionally, the bill amends Section 6-29-1130 to allow for the inclusion of adopted concurrency programs in the regulations governing land development. This change emphasizes the importance of coordinating land development with existing or planned public services and facilities, ensuring that developments do not pose risks to health, safety, or public welfare. The bill is set to take effect upon approval by the Governor.
