Under current law, a county board may schedule an advisory referendum or a
referendum on the question of ratification of an ordinance or resolution of the county
board. This bill prohibits the Milwaukee County Board from scheduling a
referendum on any matter that is subject to the approval of the electors of a county
under this bill to be held concurrently with the election at which the question of
approval is presented to the electors.
Under current law, the state, regional planning commissions, federally
recognized Indian tribes and bands, and local units of government, including
municipalities, counties, school districts, and other special purpose districts, may
enter into intergovernmental cooperation agreements for the receipt or furnishing
of services or joint exercise of powers. Under another provision of current law, a
county and a city, village, or town (municipality), may enter into a contract to
consolidate municipal services under which the county renders such services to the
contracting municipality, either exclusively by the county or jointly with the
municipality.

Under this bill, before such a contract, or before an intergovernmental
cooperation agreement with a value of more than $300,000, between a county with
a population of 750,000 or more (presently only Milwaukee County) and another
local unit of government may take effect and become binding on such a county, the
contract or agreement must be approved by an executive council. The bill defines
executive council as a body that consists of the mayor of a first class city (presently
only Milwaukee) and the mayor or village president of every city and village that is
wholly located within that county and is based on a current law provision that is used
to select four members of the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage Commission.
This bill repeals an obsolete provision of civil procedure governing judgments
entered before the first Monday in January 1962 in the civil court of Milwaukee or
in any court which ceased to function on that date, or in any court functioning under
ch. 254 of the 1959 Wisconsin Statutes.
This bill also removes certain authority currently possessed by the Milwaukee
County board. Under the bill, the board may no longer do any of the following:
appropriate money for planning or participating in a world festival celebration or any
similar program designed to promote international commerce and culture; own and
operate a professional baseball team, and maintain a nonprofit corporation for such
ownership or operation; require licenses for cats; and let a contract for the
design-build construction of a sheriff's department training academy.
Under current law, a county board has general authority to acquire, lease, or
rent real and personal property. Under this bill, in Milwaukee County, such
authority is exercised by the county executive, consistent with established county
board policy, although the sale or lease of property is subject to a simple approval or
rejection by the county board.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
