Bill > HB377

This bill modifies the public notice requirements for charter counties in Missouri, providing an alternative method for publishing legally mandated notices starting August 28, 2025. Specifically, in counties with a charter form of government, any notice that is currently required by law to be published in a newspaper can now be either published in a traditional newspaper or on the Missouri Secretary of State's website. The bill requires the Secretary of State's office to develop procedures for submitting these notices online and to create a dedicated, searchable webpage that makes all such notices easily accessible to the public. This change gives local governments more flexibility in how they communicate public notices while ensuring that important information remains available to citizens through a centralized, user-friendly online platform.
