Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Notice By Publication Act and the Newspaper Legal Notice Act. Provides that if there is no newspaper published in the county where a unit of local government or school district is located, notice by publication shall be given in a secular newspaper located in an adjoining county having general circulation within the unit of local government or school district. Provides that whenever notice is required by law, order of court, or a contract to be published in a newspaper, the newspaper publishing the notice shall, at no additional cost to government, place the notice on the statewide website established and maintained as a joint venture of the majority of Illinois newspapers as a repository for the notices. Includes, in the definition of "newspaper", a requirement that the newspaper have the capability of placing notices on a daily or weekly basis on the statewide website established and maintained as a joint venture of the majority of Illinois newspapers as a repository for the notices. If, after the effective date, there is a notice that is required by law or order of court to be published in a particular unit of local government or school district and there is no newspaper published in the territory of the local government or district, or, in the county in which the local government or district is located, the notice shall be published in a secular newspaper that is published in an adjoining county having general circulation within the unit of local government or school district. To the extent that there is a conflict between the provisions of this amendatory Act and any other provision of law, these provisions control. Effective January 1, 2011.

House Floor Amendment No. 2
Further amends the Notice by Publication Act and the Newspaper Legal Notice Act. Provides that all notices required for publication by the Act remain legal and valid for all purposes when any error occurs concerning the placement of the notice on the statewide website is the fault of the printer. Provides that the changes are effective December 31, 2012 (instead of January 1, 2011).
