The Honorable, The Legislature:
This biennial report, which is required under s. 13.94(1)(j), Wis. Stats., summarizes the Legislative Audit Bureau's statutory responsibilities and highlights significant accomplishments from January 1, 2009, through December 31, 2010.
S34 During that biennium, we produced more than 70 independent audits, evaluations, reviews, opinions, and certifications. Our work helps to assure the Legislature and the public that financial transactions and management decisions are made effectively, efficiently, and in compliance with the law and that the policies and practices of state agencies are consistent with legislative intent. Our reports frequently include recommendations that improve government programs and services, maximize federal reimbursements, and ensure public funds are wisely spent and appropriately accounted for.
We are proud to deliver accurate and useful information that enhances accountability and assists the Legislature in its oversight of executive branch agencies. We look forward to serving the Legislature, the Governor, and the people of Wisconsin in the coming years.
Sincerely,
Janice Mueller

Department of Justice

The Honorable, The Legislature:
Section 165.90 of the Wisconsin Statutes requires the Department of Justice to report on the performance of cooperative county-tribal law enforcement programs receiving aid under this section. This letter constitutes our report.
This marks the twenty-third year that the Department has awarded grants for cooperative county-tribal law enforcement programs. The statutes require counties and tribes to develop joint program plans. The Department requires plans to include resolutions of support for the plan adopted by county boards and tribal governing bodies, to signify cooperation and mutual commitment.
This program pays for a variety of law enforcement services to Native American communities across Wisconsin. Grants have been used for the costs of personnel, patrol, investigation, crime prevention, K-9 units, information technology, law enforcement training, alternatives to drug abuse and gang involvement, diversity training, cultural awareness education, and emergency/rescue equipment. An increasing number of grants are awarded to programs that include tribal policy departments, generally helping to pay for tribal liaison personnel and patrol services provided to Native American reservations and communities.
The amount appropriated for this program in State Fiscal Year 2011 was $701,300. Grant funds come from tribal gaming receipts as appropriated in the biennial budget. For Calendar Year 2011, the Department issued 19 awards totaling $701,300. These awards were in the following amounts:
CY2010
County Tribe Award
Ashland Bad River
Chippewa $57,003
Barron St. Croix
Chippewa $12,259
Bayfield Red Cliff
Chippewa $56,122
Brown Oneida Nation $40,242
Burnett St. Croix
Chippewa $16,254
Forest Potawatomi $38,515
Forest Sokaogon Chippewa $33,065
Jackson Ho Chunk Nation $30,718
Juneau Ho Chunk Nation $33,746
Menominee Menominee $75,593
Monroe Ho Chunk Nation $24,203
Outagamie Oneida Nation $35,299
Polk St. Croix Chippewa $17,221
Sauk Ho Chunk Nation $28,442
Sawyer Lac CourteOreilles

Shawano Stockbridge-Munsee
Mochican $42,233
Vilas Lac de Flambeau
Chippewa $55,815
Wood Ho Chunk Nation $20163
TOTAL $701,300
The Department of Justice's County-Tribal Law Enforcement Grant Program continues to help local law enforcement provide needed services in Native American communities. In addition this program helps build a cooperative atmosphere and positive relationship between law enforcement and tribal governments and communities. I am please to share information regarding this important program with you.
Sincerely,
J.B. Van Hollen
Attorney General

The Honorable, The Legislature:
The attached report is submitted to the Legislature pursuant to s.46.27 (11g) and s.46.277 (5m) of the Wisconsin statutes, which require the Department of Health Services to submit an annual report for the Community Options Program (COP) and the Home and Community-Based Waivers (COP-W/CIP II).
