Establishes requirements for physical copies of a municipal code a municipal clerk keeps on file
HB 1829 requires municipal clerks in Missouri to maintain physical copies of a municipality's general ordinances. If a municipality's ordinances are not available online for free public inspection, clerks must keep at least three physical copies on file. If the ordinances are available online at no cost, clerks only need to keep one physical copy. This bill directly affects municipal clerks and ensures public access to physical copies of local laws during business hours. The law replaces an existing statute to clarify these requirements.
