Propose a change

Title 37 Public Utilities

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

What to do with it
As published

37-7-136. Election of commissioners; votes necessary to

elect; filling of vacancies; qualifications and duties of commissioners elected. No person shall be elected as commissioner who shall not have received a majority of all votes cast. No election shall be invalid by reason of the fact that a majority of the assessed valuation of real estate within the district was not represented at such election. Whenever the office of any elected commissioner shall become vacant by reason of death, resignation or other cause, the vacancy shall be filled by the surviving commissioners for the unexpired term. In case such vacancy is not filled within thirty (30) days the court shall fill such vacancy. All elected commissioners shall have the same qualifications and duties as herein prescribed for appointed commissioners.

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.
