AB 1225: Relating to: eliminating the fee for an annual fishing license issued to a resident senior citizen and making an appropriation. (FE)

AB 1225 eliminates the $6.25 fee for annual fishing licenses issued to resident senior citizens in Wisconsin. To fund this change, the bill requires the state to transfer an amount equal to the total fees that would have been collected from these licenses into the conservation fund each fiscal year. The legislation also updates related statutes to reflect the zero cost for these licenses and clarifies that no issuing fee applies to them.

SR 5: Relating to: revival of certain assembly bills for immediate senate consideration.

This Senate Resolution attempts to restart five specific bills from the 2023 legislative session, allowing them to be immediately reviewed and amended by the Senate. The measure directly affects the legislative process by overriding existing rules that would normally prevent these bills from being considered again. However, the resolution failed to pass during its initial vote on May 14, 2024, and therefore did not take effect. As a result, the five bills remain inactive and are not currently under Senate consideration.

AB 1215: Relating to: grants and loans for housing cooperative infrastructure improvements and making an appropriation. (FE)

This bill establishes a state program to provide loans and grants to housing cooperatives for infrastructure improvements. The funding, totaling $10 million, is intended for organizations that own residential properties used as homes by their members, including multi-family apartment complexes and manufactured or mobile home communities. Recipients can use the funds to repair or upgrade buildings, add energy-saving features, install storm shelters, or build community facilities to ensure properties remain safe and affordable. The Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority will manage the program and set specific rules for how the money is awarded.

AB 1216: Relating to: creating a housing cooperative conversion revolving loan fund and loan program and making an appropriation. (FE)

This bill creates a revolving loan fund and program administered by the Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority to provide financing for housing cooperatives. The program is designed to help these cooperatives build or purchase resident-owned housing, with a specific focus on manufactured or mobile home communities and multi-family apartment complexes. Loans issued under the program must have interest rates at or below market levels or be interest-free, and they require that at least 50 percent of the units remain affordable to households earning up to 80 percent of the area median income. Additionally, the bill appropriates $25 million to establish the fund and includes a requirement that the loan amount becomes due if the housing is sold, unless the sale is to a current resident under a rent-to-own agreement approved by the authority.
