Unlawful Restrictions in Land Records Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2024

This resolution declares an emergency to immediately enact laws allowing homeowners and associations to remove unlawful restrictive covenants from property deeds and governing documents. It specifically voids covenants that ban apartment buildings or multiple dwelling units when such structures are already permitted by current zoning rules. The process enables affected parties to simply fill out an amendment form and record it to eliminate these restrictions, addressing issues like a District-owned property where a pre-1938 covenant blocks allowed multifamily housing.
