The proposed bill seeks to establish a new section in South Dakota law that prohibits covenants running with the land from restricting or prohibiting the lawful possession, storage, transportation, or discharge of firearms and ammunition. Specifically, it states that any covenant that includes such prohibitions will be considered void and unenforceable.

Additionally, the bill clarifies that if a provision within a covenant is found to violate this new section, that specific provision will be severable, meaning it can be removed without affecting the validity of any remaining provisions in the covenant. This legislation aims to ensure that property owners retain their rights regarding firearms and ammunition on their premises.
