Summary

The bill amends state law so that towns, cities and boroughs can satisfy legal‑notice requirements by publishing them on their own internet sites, while still allowing notice in a daily or weekly newspaper. Each municipal clerk must retain a physical copy of every notice for one year. The change modernizes notice delivery without shortening any statutory notice periods.
