THEY JUST GOT A PERMIT TO PUMP WASTE INTO THE RIVER. OR HADN’T YOU HEARD? When government officials make decisions, they must let their citizens know. That’s why the state requires them to publish their actions through public notices in newspapers.
But some politicians would prefer to bury public notices on little seen, rarely visited government websites – away from public scrutiny! If it is not in the newspaper, you won’t know about it.
