At its regular meeting in January of each year the board of county commissioners shall designate three legal newspapers printed in the county as official newspapers. If there are not three legal newspapers within the county, then as many newspapers that are legal newspapers. No more than two newspapers within the same municipality may be designated as official newspapers by the county, if there are other legal newspapers published elsewhere within the county.
The board shall publish a full and complete report of all its official proceedings at all regular and special meetings and shall publish proceedings as soon after any meeting as practicable. The board shall pay for publishing the proceedings at a rate not to exceed ninety percent of the legal line rates for weekly newspapers and not to exceed the legal line rate for daily newspapers, as provided in chapter 17-2 .
All notices required by law to be published by the county auditor shall also be published in the official newspapers. If any notice includes a legal description of property outside the incorporated limits of a municipality, the notice may include a physical description of the property from the nearest incorporated municipality.
