What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill allows the town of Freedom in Outagamie County to create a tax

incremental district (TID) in the same manner as a city or village. Current law

provides that a town may create a TID in the same manner as a city or village if the

equalized value of all taxable property in the town is at least $500 million and the

town's population is at least 3,500. Current law, however, allows the town of

Brookfield in Waukesha County and the town of Somers in Kenosha County to create

a TID in the same manner as a city or village without having to satisfy the value and

population requirements.
