What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill amends the 2023-25 Authorized State Building Program to add the

following projects for the University of Wisconsin System:

1. UW–Madison: demolition of an engineering facility and construction of a

replacement engineering building.

2. UW–Madison: Kronshage-Jorns-Humphrey Residence Halls additions and

renovations.

3. UW–Whitewater: Winther/Heide Hall entry additions and renovations.

4. Systemwide: demolition projects.

5. Systemwide: central plants and utility distribution renovations.

In addition to moneys contributed from other funding sources, such as gifts and

program revenues, the bill transfers $423,273,000 from the general fund to the

capital improvement fund for the purpose of funding these projects, except that the

UW–Madison Kronshage-Jorns-Humphrey Residence Halls project is funded solely

from program revenue supported borrowing and program revenues.
