The bill proposes to add a new section to chapter 10-6 of South Dakota law that prohibits the use of drones, or any information obtained from drones, for the purpose of assessing real property for taxation. This measure aims to ensure that traditional methods of property assessment are maintained and that the use of technology does not interfere with the assessment process.

Additionally, the bill establishes that any violation of this prohibition will be classified as a Class 2 misdemeanor, thereby imposing a legal penalty for non-compliance. This legislative action reflects a growing concern over privacy and the implications of using advanced technology in governmental assessments.
