Consent for annexation

SECTION 1. Section 5-3-150(5) of the 1976 Code, as last amended by Section 142, Part II, Act 497 of 1994, is further amended to read:

Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any real property which is or has been included within a multi-county park under Section 4-1-170 and title to which is held by the State of South Carolina, only may be annexed with prior written consent of the State of South Carolina and when title to real property in such a park is held by a political subdivision of the State, the property may be annexed only with prior written consent of the governing body of the political subdivision holding title."
