What to do with it
As published

17-19-705. Notice of meeting.

(a) A corporation shall give notice consistent with its bylaws of meetings of members in a fair and reasonable manner. (b) Any notice that conforms to the requirements of subsection (c) of this section is fair and reasonable, but other means of giving notice may also be fair and reasonable when all the circumstances are considered; provided, however, that notice of matters referred to in paragraph (c)(ii) of this section shall be given as provided in subsection (c) of this section. (c) Notice is fair and reasonable if: (i) The corporation notifies its members of the place, date and time of each annual, regular and special meeting of members no fewer than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the meeting date; (ii) Notice of an annual or regular meeting includes a description of any matter or matters that shall be approved by the members under W.S. 17-19-831, 17-19-856, 17-19-1003, 17-19-1021, 17-19-1104, 17-19-1202, 17-19-1401 or 17-19-1402; and (iii) Notice of a special meeting includes a description of the matter or matters for which the meeting is called. (d) Unless the bylaws require otherwise, if an annual, regular or special meeting of members is adjourned to a different date, time or place, notice need not be given of the new date, time or place, if the new date, time or place is announced at the meeting before adjournment. If a new record date for the adjourned meeting is or shall be fixed under W.S. 17-19-707, however, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given under this section to the members of record as of the new record date. (e) When giving notice of an annual, regular or special meeting of members, a corporation shall give notice of a matter a member intends to raise at the meeting if: (i) Requested in writing to do so by a person entitled to call a special meeting; and (ii) The request is received by the secretary or president of the corporation at least ten (10) days before the corporation gives notice of the meeting.

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.
