As published

1-A:1 Definitions.

In this chapter: I. "The New Hampshire coordinate system of 1927", as defined by the former United States Coast and Geodetic Survey, means a transverse mercator projection of the Clarke spheroid of 1866, having a standard meridian at 71degree40' along which meridian the scale shall be one part in 30,000 too small. The origin of coordinates is at the intersection of the said meridian 70degree40' west of Greenwich and the parallel 42degree30' north latitude. This origin is given the coordinates: x = 500,000 feet and y = 0 feet. II. "The New Hampshire coordinate system of 1983", as defined by the National Ocean Service/National Geodetic Survey, means a transverse mercator projection of the North American datum of 1983, having a standard meridian at 71degree40' along which meridian the scale shall be one part in 30,000 too small. The origin of coordinates is at the intersection of the said meridian 71degree40' west of Greenwich and the parallel 42degree30' north latitude. This origin is given the coordinates: x = 300,000 meters and y = 0 meters. Source. 1985, 216:1, eff. July 30, 1985.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.

Think it through

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
