Plain-language change summary

The updated version of Bill HB 167 clarifies the requirements for localities to publish notices about plans and ordinances by removing some redundant language and streamlining the process. Notably, it specifies that notices must be published for two successive weeks and allows a joint public hearing to occur with consolidated notice from the governing body. This change simplifies the notification process for local governments, ensuring that the community is still informed while reducing potential confusion in the advertisement requirements. Overall, it makes the process more efficient and accessible for local residents to engage in public hearings.
