The bill S. 903 aims to amend Section 27-30-130 of the South Carolina Code of Laws, which pertains to the enforceability of governing documents for homeowners associations (HOAs). The amendment specifies that certain HOA documents must now comply with the recording requirements outlined in Section 30-5-30. This change is intended to enhance the legal framework governing the documentation and regulation of HOAs.

Specifically, the bill modifies subsection (D) of Section 27-30-130 to clarify that the recording of rules, regulations, bylaws, and amendments will no longer be exempt from the witness and acknowledgment requirements mandated by Section 30-5-30. This adjustment aims to ensure that all relevant HOA documents are properly recorded and enforceable, thereby providing greater transparency and accountability within homeowners associations. The bill will take effect upon receiving approval from the Governor.
