Relating to certain political subdivisions publishing required notices by alternative media.

SB 1508 allows small political subdivisions (with 75,000 or fewer residents and no newspaper of general circulation) to publish required legal notices using alternative media instead of traditional newspapers. It authorizes methods like social media, free newspapers, school publications, utility bills, direct mail, and searchable online notices on the subdivision’s website. Subdivisions must hold public meetings before adopting this method, ensure online notices are searchable by subject and location, and report their approach to the attorney general. The bill applies only to jurisdictions lacking newspaper coverage, aiming to modernize notice requirements while maintaining public access.
