Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:

Definition revised

SECTION1.Section 31-15-10(1) of the 1976 Code is amended to read:

“(1)‘Municipality’ shall mean any city or town regardless of population;”

Collectibility of municipal lien

SECTION2.Section 31-15-30(6) of the 1976 Code is amended to read:

“(6)That the amount of the cost of such repairs, alterations or improvements, vacating and closing, or removal or demolition by the public officer shall be a lien against the real property upon which such cost was incurred and shall be collectible in the same manner as municipal taxes.”

Bidding of work

SECTION3.Section 31-15-30 of the 1976 Code is amended by adding a new item (7) to read:

“(7)If a municipality in demolishing unfit dwellings as permitted by this article contracts with a third party not employed by the municipality to do the work, it must bid the work in conformity with the procurement code applicable to the municipality.”

Collectibility of county lien

SECTION4.Section 31-15-330(6) of the 1976 Code is amended to read:

“(6)That the amount of the cost of such repairs, alterations or improvements, vacating and closing, or removal or demolition by the public officer shall be a lien against the real property upon which such cost was incurred and shall be collectible in the same manner as county taxes.”

Bidding of work

SECTION5.Section 31-15-330 of the 1976 Code is amended by adding a new item (7) to read:

“(7)If a county in demolishing unfit dwellings as permitted by this article contracts with a third party not employed by the county to do the work, it must bid the work in conformity with the Procurement Code applicable to the county.”

Location of landfill

SECTION6.A commercial industrial solid waste landfill or an expansion permitted after the effective date of this section shall not be located within one thousand feet of a residence, hospital, church, or

publicly-owned recreational park areas. For the purpose of this section only, the term “commercial industrial solid waste landfill” means an industrial solid waste landfill which accepts industrial solid waste from more than one generator of industrial solid waste.
