Bill > AB433

This bill modifies Wisconsin's statutes regarding legal notices and newspaper publications by making several technical changes. Specifically, the bill replaces the requirement that legal notices be published in Arial typeface with a more general requirement that they be published in a sans serif typeface, which is a broader category of clean, simple font types without decorative strokes. The bill also removes some obsolete language related to the publication of proposed constitutional amendments and other resolutions, particularly in sections dealing with document enrollment and publication processes. Additionally, the bill repeals a specific subsection of statute 35.35(1)(a) and renumbers the remaining subsection. These changes appear to be primarily administrative in nature, aimed at simplifying and updating the language around legal notice publication requirements while maintaining the core requirements for how such notices are formatted and published. The modifications will provide more flexibility in typeface selection while preserving the readability and standardization of legal notices.
