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.

Any municipality which shall have received an order from the department of environmental services under the provisions of RSA 147, 485 or 485-A shall proceed forthwith, after a majority vote in favor of such action, by the governing body, to acquire whatever easements and lands as are necessary to comply with the order and may enter upon, for the purpose of survey leading to land description, any land within the municipality.

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.
