Propose a change

Title 16 City, County, State and Local Powers

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

16-7-117. Programs with federal financing; inverse condemnation proceedings.

If an inverse condemnation proceeding is instituted by the owner of any right, title or interest in real property because of the alleged taking of his property for any program or project for which federal financial assistance will be available to pay all or any part of the cost of the program or project, the court, rendering a judgment for the plaintiff in the proceeding and awarding compensation for the taking of property, or attorney for the acquiring agency effecting a settlement of any proceeding, determines and awards or allows to the plaintiff, as a part of the judgment or settlement, a sum which will, in the opinion of the court or the attorney, reimburse the plaintiff for his reasonable costs, disbursements and expenses, including reasonable attorney, appraisal and engineering fees, actually incurred because of the proceeding.

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.
