Senate Bill 343 was sponsored by Senator Trudy Wade (R-Guilford), who apparently has a giant axe of newspapers to grind. The bill, passed the Senate last month by a vote of 30-19, would allow local and county governments to post necessary public notices on their own websites rather than in newspapers. Some of these public notices include details of public hearings on new developments and opportunities for individuals to bid on government contracts. The bill, which is even more important for newspapers, would allow local governments to host other people`s legal notices on their websites and charge lawyers and others for legally required ads such as seizures, confiscated property and other proceedings.

The fact that the money saved relative to county budgets and the state budget would be an absolute drop on a very large bucket makes it clear that the main motivation for the bill is not to save North Carolinians money. Forsyth County`s budget for the fiscal year is $425,405,900. The state budget, which passed the NC Senate on Tuesday, is $23.03 billion.
