AI Summary
This bill amends the existing law to allow municipalities in Massachusetts to publish required legal notices on a community news website, in addition to publishing in a newspaper or newspaper of general circulation. A "community news website" is defined as a website that is substantially dedicated to local news coverage for the relevant municipality and surrounding municipalities, and receives an average of at least 1,500 unique visits per month. This requirement does not apply to a municipality where a suitable community news website does not exist.
