The real property law is amended by adding a new section 2 327-a to read as follows: 3 § 327-a. Modification of restrictive covenants. 1. (a) If any coven- 4 ants, conditions and restrictions exist in a document to be recorded 5 which discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual 6 orientation, familial status, marital status, disability, national 7 origin, source of income, or ancestry, any seller shall: 8 (i) have such unlawful restrictions removed from such document by 9 submitting a restrictive covenant modification document, which shall be 10 available from the county recorder, either with the deed for recording, 11 or separately; 12 (ii) provide the purchaser or title insurance applicant with a copy of 13 the appropriate restrictive covenant modification document prior to or 14 at the closing of title; 15 (iii) record the restrictive covenant modification document, however, 16 such seller shall not be required to pay filing fees for the recording 17 of the restrictive covenant modification document. 18 (b) Within one year of the effective date of this section, the board 19 of managers of a condominium, the board of directors of a cooperative 20 apartment corporation or a homeowners association if such real property 21 is subject to the rules and regulations of such an association, shall 22 delete or amend any covenants, conditions and restrictions that exist in 23 a recorded document which discriminate on the basis of race, color, 24 religion, sex, sexual orientation, familial status, marital status, EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [] is old law to be omitted. LBD05928-01-3A. 4428 2 1 disability, national origin, source of income, or ancestry. Such 2 deletions or amendments shall not be subject to the approval of property 3 owners. 4 (c) This section shall not apply to any lawful restrictions under 5 state and federal law. 6 2. The restrictive covenant modification document shall be indexed in 7 the same manner as any previously recorded document or documents to 8 which the modification document refers and shall reference the original 9 document by book and page number or instrument number and the date of 10 recording. 11 3. Subject to covenants, conditions, and restrictions recorded after 12 the original document containing unlawful restrictions, and subject to 13 covenants, conditions and restrictions recorded after the restrictive 14 covenant modification document, the restrictive covenant modification, 15 once recorded, shall be deemed the only restrictions having effect on 16 the property. 17 4. Any person holding an ownership interest in real property that he 18 or she believes is subject to an unlawfully restrictive covenant in 19 violation of state or federal law prohibiting restriction based on race, 20 color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, familial status, marital 21 status, disability, national origin, source of income, or ancestry may 22 record a restrictive covenant modification document pursuant to subdivi- 23 sion one of this section. Such recording shall include a complete copy 24 of the original document containing the unlawful language with the 25 unlawful language stricken and shall be signed under penalty of law. 26 5. The county recorder shall make available to the public forms for 27 preparation of a restrictive covenant modification document. 28 6. If the holder of an ownership interest in property causes to be 29 recorded a restrictive covenant modification document pursuant to this 30 section which contains language not authorized by this section, any 31 liability which derives from such recording shall be the sole responsi- 32 bility of the holder of the ownership interest of record and the county 33 recorder shall not incur any liability for recording such document. 34 § 2. This act shall take effect on the one hundred eightieth day after 35 it shall have become a law. Effective immediately, the addition, amend- 36 ment and/or repeal of any rule or regulation necessary for the implemen- 37 tation of this act on its effective date are authorized to be made and 38 completed on or before such effective date.
