To the Honorable, the Assembly:
Pursuant to s.
710.02 (4) (b), Stats., as amended by
1993 Wisconsin Act 112, I submit to the Assembly the attached report entitled "Status of Alien Land Ownership in the State of Wisconsin, 1994-1999."
Under s.
710.02 (4) (a), Stats., DATCP must annually submit this report to the chief clerk of each house of the legislature for distribution to the appropriate standing committees under s.
13.172 (3), Stats. The report summarizes information received under s.
710.02 (4) (a), Stats.
Under 710.02 (4) (a), Stats., all foreign persons (including individuals, corporations, firms, partnerships, limited liability companies, trusts and any other legal entity) who acquire or transfer land in Wisconsin must submit a report to DATCP after the date of acquisition or transfer. The same report must also be filed under federal law, under
7 USC 3501 to
3508. Aliens initially file the FSA-135 forms with their county FSA office. The reports are then forwarded to Washington, DC to be verified and recorded before they are filed with DATCP.
The attached report summarizes ownership of Wisconsin land as of December 1999, according to the information received by DATCP as of that date. Additional copies of this report may be obtained by contacting Kathy Schmitt in the Division of Marketing at 608/224-5048.
Sincerely,
Ben Brancel
Secretary
