SB 1059 Wisconsin Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Relating to: depositing tires on private property and providing a penalty.

SB 1059 makes it a Class A misdemeanor to intentionally deposit four or more tires on someone else's private property. This law directly affects property owners who have tires dumped on their land and individuals who dump tires. The bill requires violators to pay the property owner's actual cost for proper tire disposal through a restitution order. It creates two new statutes: one defining the misdemeanor offense (s. 943.018) and another mandating restitution (s. 973.20 (4r)). The bill is currently pending in the Judiciary and Public Safety committee.
