This bill allows public bodies in New Jersey to continue using newspapers for required public notices and legal advertisements beyond the current regulations. Specifically, it stipulates that any newspaper designated as an official publication by a public body from January 1, 2024, to December 31, 2024, will remain eligible for these purposes until March 1, 2025, regardless of whether the publication is in physical or digital format.

The legislation aims to ensure that public bodies can maintain their communication methods without interruption during the specified period, thereby facilitating compliance with public notice requirements. The bill is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
