HD 4935 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act allowing "print-free" digital legal notices for the town of North Brookfield

This bill allows North Brookfield's government bodies (like the Board of Selectmen, School Committee, and Planning Board) to post legal notices digitally instead of in print newspapers, addressing the town's lack of an adequate local print newspaper. It permits posting notices on newspaper websites, qualifying local news sites, state notice repositories, or the town's own website, subject to approval by the governing body or a municipal official. The bill does not change existing timing requirements for notices under Massachusetts law. It specifically applies only to North Brookfield and takes effect upon passage.
