a delinquent tax notice to any real property owner unless the treasurer
has verified that the notice is addressed to the owner of the property,
as reflected on the updated assessment roll. In the Senate, the bill was
amended to remove the language that prohibited a county treasurer from
sending a delinquent tax notice to any property owner unless the
treasurer verified that the notice is address to the owner. The bill
also was amended to replace language that required a treasurer to
perform the tasks to the best of his/her ability with language that
requires tasks be done according to the law. The bill also was amended
to provide an exemption from certain employment requirements for
facilities that have been located in Oklahoma for at least 10 years and
are engaged in the manufacture of frozen cakes, pies and other pastries.
In the Senate, the bill was amended to remove language that prohibited a
county treasurer from sending a delinquent tax notice to any property
owner unless the treasurer verified that the notice is addressed to the

Paraphrase: HB3326, by Rep. Anastasia Pittman,
D-Oklahoma City and Rep. Mike Shelton, D-Oklahoma City, creates the
Mortgage Rescue Fraud Protection Act, requiring the person authorized to
make a sale in an action to foreclose a mortgage or deed of trust to
give written notice of the action to the record owner of the property to
be sold. The act grants a homeowner the right to rescind a foreclosure
consulting contract at any time and to rescind a foreclosure
reconveyance at any time before midnight of the 10th business day after
any conveyance or transfer. It requires the homeowner to repay, within
60 days of the rescission, any funds paid or advanced by the foreclosure
consultant or anyone working with the foreclosure consultant. The bill
also prohibits a foreclosure consultant from demanding or receiving any
compensation until after the consultant has fully performed each and
every service contracted to perform, demanding or receiving any fee that
exceeds 8 percent per year of the amount of any loan the consultant
makes to the homeowner, taking any wage assignment, any lien of any type
on real or personal property or other security to secure the payment of
compensation, receiving any consideration from any third party in
connection with foreclosure consulting services unless the consideration
is first fully disclosed in writing to the homeowner, acquiring any
interest, directly or indirectly, in a residence in foreclosure from a
homeowner with whom the consultant has contracted or taking any power of
attorney from a homeowner except to inspect documents as provided by
law. The bill also sets conditions for when a foreclosure purchaser may
not enter into a foreclosure reconveyance with a homeowner. The bill
also prohibits a foreclosure purchaser from entering into repurchase or
lease terms that are unfair or commercially unreasonable or represent
the purchaser is acting on behalf of the homeowner, assisting the
homeowner to "save the house" or is assisting the homeowner in
preventing a foreclosure if the result of the transaction will not
complete a redemption of property. It also prohibits a foreclosure
purchaser from recording any document signed by the homeowner or
transferring any interest in the residence in foreclosure to any third
party until the right of the homeowner to rescind or cancel the
transaction has expired. It also requires a foreclosure purchaser to
make a detailed accounting of the basis for the amount of payment made
to the homeowner resold within 18 months after entering into a
foreclosure reconveyance agreement. The bill allows the Oklahoma
attorney general to seek an injunction to prohibit a person who is
violating the act from engaging in the violation. It also allows a
homeowner to bring action for damages incurred by prohibited actions. It
directs that any person who violates the act is guilty of a misdemeanor
punishable by imprisonment of up to three years and/or a fine of up to
$10,000. It directs the attorney general to maintain a list of nonprofit
organizations that offer counseling or advice to homeowners in
foreclosure or loan default. (Dormant)

HB3380  |
Paraphrase: HB3380, by Rep. Randy Terrill,
R-Moore and Sen. Anthony Sykes, R-Moore, creates the Oklahoma
Methamphetamine Offender Registry Act. It creates a registry to be
maintained by the Oklahoma State Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs
Control of persons who have been convicted or received a suspended
sentence or any probationary term for the crime of possession of
methamphetamines or possession of a precursor with the intent to
manufacture methamphetamine. It prohibits any person subject to the
registry from purchasing or possessing any Schedule V compound, mixture
or preparation containing any detectable quantity of pseudoephedrine. It
requires all district court clerks to forward a copy of the judgment and
sentence and date of birth of all persons convicted under the act to the
bureau within 45 days of the date of judgment and sentence. It also
requires the bureau to remove from the registry the name and other
identifying information of a person convicted of a violation of the
offenses in the act 10 years after the date of the most recent judgment
and sentence. It states that any person who assists another person who
is on the registry in the purchase of pseudoephedrine products is guilty
of a misdemeanor, punishable by incarceration in the county jail and/or
a fine of up to $1,000 on first offense, and incarceration in the
custody of the Department of Corrections for two years and/or by a fine
of at least $2,500 on second and subsequent convictions. The CCR adds
language that requires the Oklahoma Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous
Drugs to maintain a public methamphetamine offender registry Web site by
Nov. 1, 2011. The CCR also adds language that requires the bureau to
conduct background checks on companies and individuals that provide its
janitorial services. The CCR adds language that allows passports and
military identification to be used for the purchase of pseudoephedrine
and to allow a nursing home resident or person under hospice care who
does not have an identification card to use a Social Security number to
comply with the reporting requirements. The CCR also adds language that
exempts the central repository provided for in the Anti-Drug Diversion
Act from technology oversight by the Office of State Finance. (Amended

SB2180  |
Paraphrase: SB2180, by Sen. Dan Newberry, R-Tulsa
and Rep. Fred Jordan, R-Jenks, creates the Roofing Contractor
Registration Act, prohibiting a person from engaging in the business or
act of a roofing contractor in the state or bringing any claim, action,
suit or proceeding in any state court related to the business or
capacity as a roofing contractor without a valid registration. It
designates the Construction Industries Board to register roofing
contractors. The bill sets age requirements and definitions for
contractors and application procedures. It requires an applicant to file
a certificate showing $500,000 in liability insurance. It sets a $300
fee for roofing contractor registration certificate application, and it
establishes other procedures for the Construction Industries Board to
assess and oversee contractors and their licenses. The measure directs
monies collected by the board for roofing contractor registration
applications to be deposited into the Roofing Contractor Registration
Revolving Fund. The measure exempts from the act an actual owner of
residential or farm property who physically performs or has employees
who perform roofing services; authorized employees or representatives of
the U.S., state or any other county or municipal government; and any
person who furnishes any fabricated or finished product or material that
is not incorporated into or attached to real property. It also excludes
contractors from surety bond requirements. In the House, the bill was
amended to increase from $500 to $2,500 the administrative fine for
violations. It also removes language creating a misdemeanor for any
person acting in the capacity of a roofing contractor without a valid
registration certificate. The CCR incorporates the House amendment.
