Write a public notice in the required form

A public notice has an imposed structure, mandatory mentions and a publication date that does not forgive. The agent produces the notice in the right form from the resolution or bylaw concerned. The clerk checks the substance and the deadlines, and publishes.

Observed use

  • A municipality of 600 residents writes its notices to electors with Munia
  • Public consultation notices in planning are the typical example for the Public notice agent
  • The same notice is then adapted into a web post and a message to citizens

No public time figure for this task: we describe the use, not an invented gain.

02The recipe

How it is done, step by step.

  1. Upload the source

    Resolution, draft bylaw, decision: the Public notice agent takes the object, dates and references from it.

  2. Name the type of notice

    Public consultation, adoption, coming into force, notice to electors, call for tenders: the structure changes, the agent knows it.

  3. Check the substance

    Publication dates, legal deadlines, bylaw numbers: the part that stays with a person and that matters.

  4. Adapt

    The same notice becomes a web post and a message to citizens in one request.

The agent prepares, the employee approves. Nothing is adopted, published, sent or destroyed without a person who reread it. That is the rule on every page of this site and in every Munia agent.
