After March 1, 2026, whenever a public entity is required by law or by order or rule of court to publish or advertise a legal notice, the public entity shall make the complete text of the legal notice publicly accessible on its official Internet website free-of-charge. The website publication requirement will supersede the current newspaper publication of legal notices, including any requirements to publish in a newspaper with Statewide circulation.
A public entity shall make the complete text of each legal notice available on a dedicated legal notices webpage for at least one week from the date of initial posting or such other time period as may be required by law. For example, because N.J.S.A. 40A:4-6 requires a public hearing on an introduced and approved municipal budget to be advertised at least 10 days prior to the hearing date, the advertisement must be posted on the municipality’s legal notices webpage for at least 10 days prior to the hearing date. To the extent that a legal notice is required to follow a specific font, such as a budget summary pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40A:4-6.1, a local government unit shall adhere to that same format.
All District notifications can also be found on the New Jersey Department of Education website.
