What it would have done

Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.

Under 2009 Wisconsin Acts 2 and 28 , before July 1, 2011, the secretary of administration must lapse or transfer to the general fund from certain appropriations to executive branch state agencies a total of $479,807,600.

Also under current law, the Department of Transportation (DOT) may contract with counties to provide highway maintenance services on state trunk highways.

Read the full summary

Under this bill, if Milwaukee County requests that DOT provide additional funding for Milwaukee County's snow and ice removal between December 1, 2009, and March 31, 2010, on state trunk highways on the basis that Milwaukee County's allocation for winter maintenance activities on the state trunk highway system is insufficient, DOT must submit to the Joint Committee on Finance (JCF) a request to supplement its state highway maintenance appropriation for fiscal year 2009-10 to provide additional funding to Milwaukee County for these winter maintenance activities. JCF may supplement this appropriaton, from the transportation fund, in any amount not exceeding $1,280,900, to provide the requested additional funding.

For any amount of supplemental funding provided by JCF, the secretary of administration must reduce, by an equal amount, the amount of the $479,807,600 allocated to be transferred to the general fund from appropriations to DOT.
