The bill titled "An Act authorizing print-free digital legal notices for the town of Stow" allows the town of Stow and its subdivisions to fulfill legal notice publication requirements through various digital means, rather than solely in print newspapers. Specifically, it permits the use of a print newspaper, the website of a newspaper, local news websites that meet specific criteria, a statewide repository website, or a town-wide repository website for legal notices that are typically required by statute, ordinance, by-law, or judicial order.

Additionally, the bill clarifies that it does not change the timing or deadlines for the publication of legal notices as established in the General Laws. This legislation aims to modernize the way legal notices are disseminated, making it more accessible and efficient for the town of Stow. The act will take effect immediately upon its passage.
