On June 30, 2025, Governor Murphy signed into law L.2025 c.72 (the “Law”), which updated legal notice publication requirements for local government units and boards of education (each a “Public Entity”) throughout the State of New Jersey.  In sum, the Law permits legal news publication in certain online formats after March 1, 2026.  Prior to March 1, 2026, any newspaper authorized to be utilized by a Public Entity pursuant to the Open Public Meetings Act, L.1975, c.231 (N.J.S.A. 10:4-8) is deemed eligible for legal publication regardless of whether the paper has an electronic publication option.  On and after March 1, 2026, Public Entities will be required by law to have created a direct hyperlink for current legal notices and conspicuously place such link on the homepage of its official website, which is to be available to the public free of charge.  The website will need to incorporate the “conspicuously placed” link into a mobile friendly format, also free of charge. Additionally, as of March 1, 2026, Public Entities are to create an internet archive for public notices to be maintained thereafter, and said archive must be published on the Public Entity’s website no later than July 1, 2026.  All archived legal notices must be maintained in the Public Entity’s internet archive for at least one year after having been transferred from its current legal notices webpage.  Both current and archived legal notices should be accessible either as a linked pdf or a full notice directly embedded in the webpage....
