(A29, R70, S463)

AN ACT TO CONFIRM THE OWNERSHIP BY THE SOUTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF DISABILITIES AND SPECIAL NEEDS OF REAL PROPERTY DESCRIBED IN ACT 1645 OF 1972, TO DIRECT THE STATE BUDGET AND CONTROL BOARD TO DEED THE PROPERTY TO THE DEPARTMENT, AND TO ALLOW THE DEPARTMENT TO RETAIN THE PROCEEDS OF ANY SALE OF THE PROPERTY.

Whereas, in Act 1645 of 1972, the General Assembly authorized the transfer from South Carolina Department of Mental Health to the South Carolina Department of Mental Retardation a tract of real property in Richland County of two hundred eighty-five acres and in that act provided a legal description of the property and a plat reference; and

Whereas, no deed was executed to accomplish this transfer; and

Whereas, for purposes of any subsequent transfer of the property it is necessary to confirm ownership of the tract by the South Carolina Department of Disabilities and Special Needs as the successor agency of the South Carolina Department of Mental Retardation and execute a deed conveying the property to the South Carolina Department of Disabilities and Special Needs. Now, therefore,

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

Ownership confirmed, agency may retain sale proceeds

(B)    The State Budget and Control Board shall cause to be executed and recorded an appropriate deed conveying the tract to the South Carolina Department of Disabilities and Special Needs.

(C)    Proceeds of a subsequent sale of the tract that is the subject of this section may be retained by the South Carolina Department of Disabilities and Special Needs.

Time effective

SECTION    2.    This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor.

Ratified the 8th day of May, 2003.
