Summary
The bill changes Minnesota law so that a city or county can publish legal notices on its website if there is no qualified newspaper in the area. It updates definitions of “public notice,” “publish,” and adds a definition for “website.” The change aims to ensure residents still receive required notices even in newspaper‑dead zones.
