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

37-9-203. Lands heretofore taken may be acquired.

Any railroad company which may have prior to January ninth, A.D. 1891, taken any of the lands of this state for right-of-way and depot grounds shall, upon filing a plat and survey thereof, with the director, and payment for depot grounds, be entitled to a conveyance by letters patent, by the governor, conveying in fee the lands for depot grounds, and granting forever to such railroad company, its successors and assigns, the right to take, use, occupy and enjoy for its railroad purposes, the lands so taken for right-of-way, for tracks and roadways; provided, that in addition to the filing of such survey and plat, proof, to the satisfaction of the land commissioners, shall be made of the construction of such railroad across the land, and the erection of a station on the lands claimed for depot grounds.

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.
