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.
Change 1
As published
84 Paving and drainage of yards and passages.
(1) If a court or yard appurtenant to, or a passage giving access to, buildings to which this section applies—
(a) is not so formed, flagged, asphalted or paved, or
(b) is not provided with such works on, above or below its surface,
as to allow of the satisfactory drainage of its surface or subsoil to a proper outfall (having regard both to the need to remove water from the court, yard or passage and also to the need to dispose of it satisfactorily in the course of or after its removal), the local authority may by notice require any person who is the owner of any of the buildings to execute all such works as may be necessary to remedy the defect.
(2) Sections 99 and 102 below apply in relation to a notice given under subsection (1) above.
(3) The buildings to which this section applies are houses and industrial and commercial buildings.
(4) This section applies in relation to any court, yard or passage that is used in common by the occupiers of two or more houses, or a house and a commercial or industrial building, but is not a highway maintainable at the public expense.

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.
