HOUSE BILL NO. 783 Offered January 10, 2018 Prefiled January 9, 2018 A BILL to amend and reenact § 15.2-107.1 of the Code of Virginia, relating to advertisement of legal notices. ---------- Patron-- Keam ---------- Referred to Committee for Courts of Justice ----------

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:

1. That § 15.2-107.1 of the Code of Virginia is amended and reenacted as follows:

§ 15.2-107.1. Advertisement of legal notices on websites.

In addition to any requirements that a locality advertise legal notices in a newspaper having a general circulation in the locality, such notices may also be published on the locality's World Wide Web site website.

However, notwithstanding any other provision of law, general or special, in any town within the Counties of Fairfax, Loudoun, and Prince William, legal notices may be published on the locality's website instead of in a newspaper having general circulation in the locality if the town meets the following conditions: (i) the town sends public notices by email to each resident that provides an email address and (ii) all public notices to be published on the town's website are posted in a prominent manner that is intended to reach the largest number of viewers.
