ColoradoDigital Publication for Legal Notice
What it does
Existing law requires a county or municipality to publish legal notices in a physical print newspaper. The act requires a newspaper to also publish these notices online, either on its own website or by providing a link on its website to a location where the full text of the notice is available, such as the statewide public notice website. Legal notices published online must be free to access and cannot be kept behind a paywall or subscription.
More detail
The act also requires the statewide public notice website to include a list of newspapers that meet the requirements to publish legal notices.(Note: This summary applies to this bill as enacted.)
