AN ACT CONCERNING THE SUMMARIZATION AND PUBLICATION OF MUNICIPAL LEGAL NOTICES.

HB 5448 allows municipalities required to publish legal notices in newspapers to instead publish a summary of the notice along with a statement directing residents to view the full notice online at the municipality's website or in print at a designated municipal office. This bill directly affects local governments and their public notice requirements under current law. The key provision replaces full newspaper publication with a concise summary plus clear access points for the complete notice. The bill does not change the content of required legal notices but streamlines their dissemination method to align with digital accessibility. (Bill: HB 5448, 2025 Connecticut General Assembly)
