New Jersey Housing and Mortgage Finance Agency
Along with the new design is a change in how Notices are numbered. The system of numbering by type of official is now eliminated and replaced with a single year and consecutive numbering system (i.e., 2004-1, 2004-2…). With the increase of programs and number of officials interested in Division activities, there has been significant overlap and a blurring of some areas, leading to duplication numbers and several numbers assigned to a single Notice.
The original system was designed to facilitate mailing to individuals certified by the Division. The ability to deliver information electronically has eliminated that need. Notices issued earlier in 2004 will be renumbered and posted with both numbers as reference. The Division’s LFN web site is being redesigned to accommodate the new format.
To identify individuals who will be most likely interested in a Notice, the bottom left corner of the first page of the Notice will have a “Distribution” box where those individuals will be listed.
As most Notices contain one or more references to web sites, the way web sites are referenced is being standardized. In most cases, links to web sites will be embedded in the text and not directly displayed. The links will be underlined and appear in blue on screen or if printed on a color printer. The links will be live, so that clicking the link will bring the user to the referenced site. To facilitate off-line reading, the end of each Notice will have a “Table of Web Links” that will list each link by page number, highlighted text and display the full web address of the item.
E-mail links will be handled as either displayed links or as embedded in text as noted above. They will also be in blue and underlined. Underlining in a Notice will only represent web-enabled text.
GovConnect News Changes
Change is also coming to GovConnect News. To improve presentation, GovConnect News is changing to a news item list, organized by subject matter (i.e., Finance, Procurement, Clerks, General), where each listed item links to full stories on subject matter pages. This will make it easier for users to see what’s new, and to see what is news in other areas. Users are encouraged to regularly check not only to review news, but, to use the discussion forums. Role based e-mail will now be sent out announcing new GovConnect News postings.
We hope you find these changes useful.
Finally, DCA Commissioner Susan Bass Levin recently appointed Susan Jacobucci, Esq., as Acting Director of the Division of Local Government Services. Ms. Jacobucci is an experienced municipal attorney and looks forward to serving the local government community in her new position.
Approved: Susan Jacobucci, Acting Director

Local Finance Notice Changes
With the increased use of the Internet by most local governments, the Division is changing the design and the way Local Finance Notices are delivered to local officials and the public. This Notices explains the new procedures and format.
Electronic Access to Notices
Local Finance Notices are now distributed electronically to municipal and county officials through the GovConnect program. Municipal Clerks, Clerks to Boards of Chosen Freeholders, County and Municipal Finance Officers, and Tax Collectors all participate in the program. The Division has been very pleased with the speed and efficiency of distributing Notices this way.
The Division is in the process of creating a GovConnect role for local and public school purchasing agents, and shortly, these individuals will receive e-mail notification through GovConnect when new information is released. Purchasing agents can sign up for the program over the web.
The Division is also expanding GovConnect to fire districts and local authorities. Notices to Fire Districts are being sent with this Notice, and access will be provided to authorities in several months.
Individuals having difficulty with access to GovConnect should contact the GovConnect help office by e-mail at egg@dca.state.nj.us, or by phone 609-943-4724.
Finally any official or member of the public can subscribe to the Division of Local Government Services DLGS News list serve and receive e-mail notification when new Notices or other information is posted to the Division’s web site. GovConnect members automatically receive list serve messages.
Using the New Notice Format
Notices have been redesigned to take advantage of web technology and improved graphics. Notices will be posted in Microsoft Word (2000) format (not PDF); most web browsers are equipped to open them within the browser by clicking the link. A right mouse click over the link will enable the user to download the file and save it on their PC. Users with difficulty opening or downloading files should contact their internal technical support staff before contacting GovConnect support staff.
