Propose a change

Title 18 Counties

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.

What to do with it
As published

(a) Each board of county commissioners may purchase or receive by donation or otherwise a site for a county courthouse, jail or both at the county seat of the county or a site for a county jail at any location within the county, and may erect thereon a suitable courthouse, jail or both if in the county seat, or a suitable jail if not located in the county seat. If such a building is to replace one presently in use the board may sell the building to be replaced. (b) If a courthouse or jail to be replaced is sold it shall be sold at public auction to the highest bidder for cash or on terms of payment as determined by the board and in case of deferred payments, security is required satisfactory to the board. No sale shall occur until public notice has been given by posting on the county's official website in the manner provided in W.S. 18-3-516(f) and by publishing in the county's designated official newspaper once a week for two (2) weeks. The notice shall specify the time, place and terms of sale. All proceeds of the sale shall be paid into the county treasury and only expended for a site or toward the erection of a new building to replace the one sold.

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.
