(2) Notwithstanding another provision of law, persons who reside on the impacted property described in item (1) on the effective date of this act may choose to enroll their child in Richland County School District Two, without charge or approval of any school district, so long as the family maintains a residence on that same property. For the purposes of this subsection, 'children' includes future born children of persons whose property is impacted by this act. This subsection only applies to those persons residing on the impacted property and their children. Once those persons move from the impacted property or no longer have children who attend or will attend schools in the South Carolina K-12 public education system, then this provision no longer applies to that property. A district may draw down state and federal funding for students enrolled under this section."
SECTION 2. Section 2A of Act 613 of 1986, as added by Act 300 of 2016, is amended to read:

In 1986 and every four years thereafter after that, successors to the three members of the board whose terms expire in 1986 must be elected from election districts 1 and 3 respectively and one member must be elected at large. In 1988 and every four years thereafter after that, successors to the four members of the board whose terms expire in 1988 must be elected from election districts 2 and 4 respectively and two members must be elected at large.
(2) Notwithstanding another provision of law or of this act, beginning with the 2020 school district elections, the four defined single-member election districts from which one member of the board of trustees of Richland County School District One must be elected are as shown on the Richland County School District One map S-79-01-16 S-79-01-19 as prepared and maintained by the Revenue and Fiscal Affairs Office.
