FRANKFORT . Local governments in Kentucky will now be able to notify news organizations about their special meetings by e-mail.

The new provision in Kentucky's open meetings law took effect earlier this month, and was touted as a money and time saver. It allows local governments to send meeting notices electronically to any agency member or media organization that asks in writing for e-mail communications.

The state attorney general's office is sending out notices of the new law to more than 1,400 public officials across the state. Mayors and county judge-executives are among the officials expecting to receive the open meeting law updates, and they're expected to pass the material on.
