HB 5070 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the use of an electronic bulletin board to post public notice.

HB 5070 allows Texas local governments to use online bulletin boards instead of physical ones for posting required public notices. It ensures electronic notices remain valid even if technical issues occur, as long as the government made a good-faith effort to comply. The bill also permits electronic posting to meet other legal notice requirements. It takes effect September 1, 2025, and directly affects all municipalities and local agencies that post public notices under Texas law.
