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

After the plans and specifications are prepared, reviewed and critiqued by the sheriff and adopted by the board of county commissioners they shall deposit them in the office of the county clerk for the county where they shall be available for the inspection of all persons. The board of county commissioners shall give notice that they will receive sealed proposals for the building of the jail according to the plans and specifications by posting on the county's official website in the manner provided in W.S. 18-3-516(f) and by publication in the county's designated official newspaper once each week for two (2) consecutive weeks.

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.
