What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill requires the Department of Natural Resources to charge a reduced

admission fee to state parks and DNR recreational sites for out-of-state vehicles

owned by certain members of the military.

Under current law, vehicles entering state parks or DNR recreational sites are

required to display an annual or daily admission receipt. Admission fees are lower

for vehicles that have Wisconsin registration plates than they are for vehicles that

have registration plates from other states.

This bill requires DNR to charge the lower annual or daily admission fee for a

vehicle that has a plate from another state if the vehicle is owned by a member of the

U.S. armed forces who is stationed in this state or who is a member of a reserve unit

located in this state or if the vehicle is owned by a member of the Wisconsin National

Guard.
