South Carolina Realtors® Legislati E Scorecard 2018 Session Scr Lobby Team SOUTH CAROLINA REALTORS® LEGISLATI E SCORECARD 2018 SESSION SCR LOBBY TEAM On May 10, 2018, the South Carolina Legislature adjourned Sine Die, marking the end of the second regular session of the 122nd General Assembly. However, the work of the General Assembly did not stop there. Per the Sine Die resolution, both bodies returned to Columbia at the end of June to continue their work on the state budget, state tax conformity, and V.C. Summer related legislation. The 2018 session brought about many challenges as most of the time spent conducting business was consumed with debate regarding the state’s energy future as it relates to the failure of the V.C. Summer Nuclear Project. SCR made a responsive effort to ensure SCR's priorities were not lost in the energy turmoil. Even with the uncertain political climate, 2018 was one of the SCR’s best legislative sessions ever! SCR, with the help of key supporters in both the House and Senate, ensured that our priority issues remained at the forefront of lawmakers’ agendas. I am extremely pleased to announce that the General Assembly recognized and took action on ALL of SCR's top 2018 REALTOR® legislative priorities this session including: H.4683 (Act #173 of 2018)- Beachfront Management Reform Act H.3886 (Act # 245 of 2018)- Homeowners Association Reform S.1101 (Act #156 of 2018)- Prohibition of Eminent Domain for Petroleum Pipeline Companies I am confident that the legislation enacted this session will benefit our membership, the real estate industry, and the consumers of South Carolina for years to come! For more information regarding SCR priorities/legislation passed in the 2018 session, please stay tuned for the SCR Post Session Report and the SCR Legislative Scorecard which will be published as the General Assembly completes their work .

LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES Beachfront Management Reform Act H.4683 In October 2017, the Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC) released proposed changes to the beachfront lines of jurisdiction (the baseline and the setback line). The changes proposed would dramatically and in many cases, negatively impact coastal properties. The lack of adequate, raw data, a compressed timeline, and the ACT 173 setting of a permanent baseline position at a future date put South Carolina's coastal property owners at a huge disadvantage. Senator Chip Campsen and Representative Lee Hewitt filed legislation in their respective bodies to provide a transparent process in the establishment of new jurisdictional lines and to establish parameters for the review and appeals process for property owners who may be adversely affected by changes. The legislation also requires adequate notice to the public on and prior to beginning new establishment cycles and provides parameters on when data can be collected for accuracy. House Vote: 98-0 • Senate Vote: 41-0 • Legislation signed into law on 5/3/18 Homeowner's Association Reform Issues and disputes regarding HOAs are an ongoing issue for REALTOR® membership and the real estate industry as a H.3886 whole. H.3886, the SC Homeowners Association Act, is an important first step in providing uniformity, transparency, and relief for homeowners across the state. The bill implements consistent guidelines that encourage good governance ACT 245 among HOAs and protect homeowners’ interests. The legislation passed the House in the 2017 session and was amended by the Senate and passed in the 2018 session. The legislation requires the recording of governing documents, provides the ability to resolve financial disputes between homeowners and HOAs in magistrate court, requires HOAs to provide notice to homeowners at least 48 hours in advance of any increase in the annual budget in any single year, and provides that the Department of Consumer Affairs shall receive and record data from any calls or written complaints and provide an annual report to the General Assembly from the data collected. House Vote: 104-0 • Senate Vote: 41-0 • Legislation signed into law on 5/3/18 Private For-Profit Pipeline Companies In 2016, SCR championed legislation that would prohibit private, unregulated, petroleum pipeline companies from S.1101 exercising eminent domain powers. The legislation clarified a gray area in existing South Carolina law and provided for a three-year moratorium, halting petroleum pipelines from using eminent domain to take the land and homes of ACT 205 South Carolina citizens. In the 2018 session, Senators Young, Massey, and Hutto and Representative Hixon introduced legislation in their respective bodies to extend the moratorium. The continuing legislation would keep the ban intact, allowing lawmakers an additional 2-year session to work on a more comprehensive approach to a permanent ban. VOTE ACT INVEST House Vote: 104-0 • Senate Vote:41-0 • Legislation signed into law on 5/3/18 3.

  • Advocacy 101
    ADVOCACY 101 Best Practices Toolkit Updated January 2017 Best Practices for Calling Your Legislator A few calls into an office over a short period of time can bring an issue to the attention of your legislator in a big way! When making a call remember the following tips: When connecting to a legislator’s office, let the staffer know that you are a constituent or community member and what issue or bill you are calling about. More than likely you’ll speak only with the staffer who will relay the message to your elected official. Keep it simple and brief. Staff receive a high volume of phone calls every day, so state your name, how you want your lawmaker to vote and why, and thank staffers for their time. Know your facts. Have the basic information about the bill in front of you when you call and be able to specifically name and describe the bill and your opinion on what your legislator should do. Don’t sweat the hypothetical unanswerable question. Some advocates worry that they will be asked a question they don’t know how to answer. Staffers typically focus on recording the message rather than asking for intricate details; however, if they do ask a question that you don’t know the answer to, tell them you’ll find out and call back. Just remember to follow up with the information! Be courteous and respectful – like your mama taught you. Best Practices for Writing Your Legislator Concise, well thought-out personal letters are one of the most effective and time-honored traditions of influencing South Carolina lawmakers.

For 53 years, South Carolina Republicans have gathered together each year to forget... celebrate our party’s conservative principles, as well as the donors and activists who help promote those principles in our government. While our Party has enjoyed increasing success in the years since our Elephant Club was formed, we always have to remember that no victories are ever perma- nent. They are dependent on our continuing to be faithful to do the fundamen- tals: communicating a clear conservative message that is relevant to voters, identifying and organizing fellow Republicans, and raising the money to make it all possible. As we gather this evening on the anniversary of the tragic terrorists attacks on our homeland in 2001, we’re reminded about what’s at stake in our elections this year - the protection of our families, our homes, our property, our borders and our fundamental values. This year’s election offers us an incredible opportunity to continue to expand our Party.

  • 2010 Arts Advocacy Handbook
    2010 ARTS ADVOCACY HANDBOOK Celebrating 30 Years of Service to the Arts January 2010 Dear Arts Leader: As we celebrate our 30th year of service to the arts, we know that “Art Works in South Carolina” – in our classrooms and in our communities. We also know that effective advocacy must take place every day! And there has never been a more important time to advocate for the arts than NOW. With drastic funding reductions to the South Carolina Arts Commission and arts education programs within the S. C. Department of Education, state arts funding has never been more in jeopardy. On February 2nd, the South Carolina Arts Alliance will host Arts Advocacy Day – a special opportunity to celebrate the arts – to gather with colleagues and legislators – and to express support for state funding of the arts and arts education! Meet us at the Statehouse, 1st floor lobby (enter at the Sumter Street side) by 11:30 AM, to pick up one of our ART WORKS IN SOUTH CAROLINA “hard-hats” and advocacy buttons to wear. If you already have a hat or button, please bring them! We’ll greet Legislators as they arrive on the 1st floor and 2nd floors. From the chamber galleries, you can view the arts being recognized on the House and Senate floors. You may want to “call out” your legislator to let him or her know you are at the Statehouse and plan to attend the Legislative Appreciation Luncheon. Then join arts leaders and legislators at the Legislative Appreciation Luncheon honoring the Legislative Arts Caucus.
