This bill allows New Jersey public bodies to publish required meeting notices and official advertisements in online newspapers and news publications, not just print newspapers. It establishes specific requirements for online publications to qualify, including maintaining a designated publication address, providing 35% original news content, and displaying a free public link to njpublicnotices.com. The bill sets standardized rates for publishing official notices based on subscriber count, ranging from $0.03 per character for publications with up to 10,000 subscribers to $0.05 per character for those with over 100,000 subscribers. All official notices published online must be available to the public for free on njpublicnotices.com. This bill directly affects government entities required to publish notices and online news publications seeking to qualify for official advertising.
