State public notice website targeted for February launch
By
-
Beginning in early February, courts, judges or clerks required by the Ohio Revised Code to publish public notices multiple times in a newspaper will be able to turn to a free statewide website as an alternative.
The most recent state budget bill charged the state’s Office of Information Technology with creating a state public notice website.
New Ohio Revised Code section 7.16 allows a state agency or political subdivision, after initially publishing the notice in full in a general circulation newspaper, to subsequently publish an “abbreviated” notice in the newspaper if the notice directs the public to the full notice on the state public notice website. Supreme Court staff has identified about a dozen instances in statute that require multiple notices by courts, judges or clerks.
