AI Summary
This bill allows county commissions in West Virginia to post legal advertisements on their official websites instead of publishing them in local newspapers, starting July 1, 2026. Legal advertisements are official notices required by law to be published, often for public awareness regarding government actions or proceedings. This change provides an alternative method for counties to fulfill these publication requirements, potentially offering a more accessible and cost-effective way to disseminate information to the public.
