Last checked Oct. 10, 2026. This page is an index, not the official publication of any legal notice. Plantation Now is not a newspaper of record for legal advertising. To read or place an official notice, use the sources below. City questions: Office of the City Clerk, City Hall, 954-797-2200.

Legal notices tell the public about hearings, budgets, rezonings, foreclosures, tax sales, bids and more. In Florida they appear in several places at once. This page lists where to find the official versions for Plantation and Broward County.

Where to look first

  • City of Plantation notices on the county site: BrowardCountyLegalNotices.com, Plantation, where the city’s planning and zoning notices page points
  • Statewide, every notice printed in a Florida newspaper: FloridaPublicNotices.com, searchable, with an archive
  • Office of the City Clerk: City Hall, 400 NW 73rd Ave., 954-797-2200

Under section 50.0211, Florida Statutes, a legal notice printed in a newspaper must also appear on that newspaper’s website the same day, and the newspaper must post it on the statewide site FloridaPublicNotices.com, run by the Florida Press Association. The statewide site must be searchable and keep an archive, and you can sign up there for alerts.

Florida law also lets local governments publish some notices on a county website instead, under section 50.0311. In Broward that site is BrowardCountyLegalNotices.com, which has a page for each agency, including Plantation. A government that uses the county site must let residents register to get its notices by mail or email instead. The City Clerk can tell you where each kind of city notice runs.
