What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill provides funding of $100,000 in each fiscal year from the conservation

fund for the Southeastern Wisconsin Fox River Commission. The bill allows the

commission to use this funding to make grants to support activities that fall under

the commission's powers or duties. Current law establishes the commission and

grants to it the authority to develop and carry out certain plans, projects, and

programs to improve water quality and recreation in the Fox River system between

the northern boundary of the city of Waukesha and the Wisconsin-Illinois border.

The commission receives no state funding under current law.
