Murray City School District (Utah) Proof of Publication, 1952

This series contains two documents verifying the publication of legally required notices in the local Murray newspaper. One notice is for a bond election and the other is for a public hearing regarding the budget adopted by the school board. Because notice of such events was required by law, the publisher of the newspaper provided a Proof of Publication document with the published notice clipped from the newspaper and pasted on the document. The document included a notarized statement and the publisher's signature verifying that the notice had been published over a given period of time. This document was then held as evidence by the school board that it was in compliance with the law.
