In GIS 05 TA/DC034, local social services districts (LDSSs) were told to expect a mailing of an important document, a settlement notice poster.

This update is to tell LDSSs that the mailing did not occur because the order approving the dates has not been signed by the judge.  The posters cannot be displayed without the signed order.

Once we have been informed that the order has been signed, we will mail the posters and respond to the districts that have asked for PDF copies of the notice.

We apologize for any inconvenience.
