public notices; publication; errors; omissions

SB 1185 ensures that minor errors or omissions in required public notices do not invalidate the notice. Public bodies, such as city councils and school districts, can proceed with meetings or decisions if they post a corrected notice on their official website at least five days before the hearing. They are not required to republish the correction in the original medium (like a newspaper), as long as the correction is available online by the five-day deadline. This law applies to all public bodies defined under Arizona law.
