Restrictive Covenant Modification Program Implementation Plan

Pursuant to the 2021 legislation set forth in Assembly Bill AB-1466 and the California Government Code Section 12956.3, the San Francisco Assessor-Recorder’s Office (ASR) has developed a plan to identity documents in its Official Record containing unlawful covenants in violation of GC Section 12955(l) and to rerecord them with the restrictive language redacted through its Restrictive Covenant Modification Program.  

Unlawful restrictions include those restrictions based on age, race, color, religion, sex, gender, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, familial status, marital status, disability, veteran or military status, genetic information, national origin, source of income as defined in subdivision Section 12955, or ancestry.
