What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill requires the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation to award

grants of up to $2,000,000 to political subdivisions of this state for costs associated

with the redevelopment of buildings or other sites owned by the political subdivision

on a UW System branch campus that are or will no longer be used for academic

purposes. A branch campus is any of the former two-year college campuses that

were partnered with a four-year UW System campus in the 2018 UW System

restructuring. WEDC must award a $2,000,000 grant to Richland County before

awarding a grant to any other political subdivision.
