What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under this bill, the offices of treasurer and register of deeds in any county with

a population of at least 750,000 (presently only Milwaukee County) are abolished

and the duties, responsibilities, and obligations of those offices are transferred to the

Milwaukee County clerk upon the election and qualification of that person at the

2012 general election. To the extent that he or she is not covered by a civil service

ordinance, any employee in the current office of treasurer or register of deeds may

continue in office subject to the approval of the elected clerk.
