2014 House Bill 5560

House Roll Call 610: Passed

To repeal the requirement that local governments publish certain legal notices in local newspapers, and instead require them to phase-in new "electronic dissemination and archival protocols" over a 10 year period, including rules for posting these on a government or agency's own website. For the first five years voters could decide if they prefer newspaper publication. Governments would have to compile permanent public notice lists enabling regular or electronic mailings to those desiring notice of legal matters.
