RSA 43 Hearings Before Town or Certain Other Local Officers

Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.

As published

43:2 Notice of Hearing.

They shall appoint a time and place of hearing, and order notice thereof to be given to all persons whose property or rights may be directly affected by the proceeding, by giving to them or leaving at their abode an attested copy of the petition and order 14 days at least before such hearing, or, if such persons are nonresidents, by publication. If the owner is under guardianship such notice shall be given to his guardian. If the owner is a minor, or under any legal disability, the judge of probate may appoint a guardian for such person, to whom notice shall be given. Source. RS 49:3. CS 52:3. GS 233:2. 1870, 28:1.

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.
