HB 2727 Missouri House · 2024 Regular Session

Establishes the "Uniform Unlawful Restrictions in Land Records Act"

This bill establishes a legal framework to eliminate discriminatory restrictions in land records, such as those based on race, religion, or national origin. It allows property owners to record an amendment that removes these unlawful clauses from their deeds, while also enabling community associations to delete such restrictions from governing documents without a member vote. The law defines specific procedures for recording these amendments and clarifies that removing a discriminatory clause does not affect the validity of other lawful restrictions on the property. Additionally, the bill declares that certain old covenants restricting ownership based on personal characteristics are void and unenforceable.
