Proposed Solution:
A New Approach to Address Trespassing
Swift Action Against Trespassers
SB 448 would authorize property owners to request law enforcement to remove squatters upon providing a sworn affidavit, as prescribed by law.
Protection for Disaster Victims
The bill would provide essential protections for disaster victims by enabling law enforcement to remove illegal trespassers and prevents additional financial burdens on homeowners already struggling with the costs of repairs and displacement.
Legal Penalties and Protections
The bill imposes penalties and protections for lawful occupants who might be wrongfully removed.
Law Enforcement Process
The bill provides a structured process for law enforcement officers to carry out their duties in accordance with the new law.
