# Governance Proposal Guide

After going through the Discussion, Draft, and Proposal phases a proposal is eligible to be voted on. Currently creating a proposal will take place on the official CGDAO Snapshot Space. Use the link below "Sub-spaces" for [**Low Impact**](https://snapshot.org/#/low.cgdao.eth) proposals. It will use the same walkthrough as below. Please refer to the necessary requirements needed to create proposals within [**Proposal**](/cgdao/governance-process/proposals.md#proposal-requirements).
