Providing that covenants, conditions or restrictions established between January 1, 1948, and December 31, 1958, that restrict the use of real property owned by state educational institutions for only single-family residence purposes and contain discriminatory provisions to restrict ownership or tenancy by race are against public policy and therefore void.

SB 194 declares that discriminatory covenants, conditions, or restrictions on real property owned by Kansas state educational institutions - established between 1948 and 1958 - that restricted the property to single-family homes or barred ownership/tenancy based on race are void and unenforceable. This directly affects properties owned by state universities or colleges under those specific historical agreements. The bill’s key provision removes the legal validity of these racially discriminatory clauses, making them unenforceable as they violate public policy. It applies only to covenants from the 1948-1958 period and does not alter other property uses or restrictions.
