Can Dewees Island take a building from its landlord?

South Carolina law and Dewees Island's own rules do not allow a local government to seize a building from its landlord the way some city programs elsewhere have proposed; code violations here are handled through fines, liens, or court action, not a municipal takeover. If a specific building or program is being referenced, that needs a named source before assuming it applies to Dewees Island. Brian Beatty can clarify what actually applies locally for any landlord with a specific property in question.
