Summary

Effective March 1, 2026, New Jersey requires legal notices that were previously printed in newspapers to be posted on municipal websites. Byram's clerk told the council where notices will be archived and provided contact information for assistance.

The Byram Township Council informed residents that legal notices will be published on the township website under a March 1, 2026 state rule change, moving notices from printed newspapers to online publication.

Township Clerk Cynthia Church said notices will be posted at https://www.byramtwp.org and archived for the legally required period. The state will maintain a centralized directory linking participating municipal pages, and the township will also provide transition notices in online news outlets during 2026.

Church provided an email contact (CChurch@byramtwp.org) for residents who need help accessing notices online and said the change aims to increase public access and reduce publication costs. The council did not take formal action on the item; the announcement served as public guidance about the new publication process.
