The Honorable, The Senate:
I am vetoing Senate Bill 446. The bill would limit the Secretary of the Department of Administration's authority to determine the date of inter-fund transfers, when none is specified, by requiring that the transfer take place during the fiscal year in which the law takes effect.
At best, this bill is unnecessary. The DOA Secretary's authority to determine the date of a transfer pertains only if a date is not otherwise specified. If the Legislature wants to specify a date, it can do so.
S873
At worst, this bill would needlessly restrict the Secretary's obligation to manage the state's finances in a prudent manner. Managing the finances of an enterprise with over $25 billion in annual funding is inherently complex and not all circumstances can be anticipated. The flexibility granted the Secretary of Administration in determining fund transfers allows the DOA to adjust to changing circumstances.
As a practical matter, SB 446 may not be workable in the context of a biennial budget. Non-statutory provisions such as transfers could easily be effective the date of publication or the first year of the biennium. In executing a two-year budget, a transfer in the second year could be the better option to comply with legislative intent for a balanced budget.
Sincerely,
JIM DOYLE
Governor

The Honorable, The Senate:
I am vetoing Senate Bill 551. The bill creates an exemption from current law to allow for one particular construction project in Kewaunee County to move forward even though it does not comply with the wetland laws that all other citizens of our state are expected to follow.
This bill undermines Wisconsin's natural resource laws to protect one particular building built on a wetland. Our natural heritage, so critical in generating tourism and jobs, should be managed in the best interests of all Wisconsin residents. We can't have a system where the Legislature is deciding who gets building permits and who doesn't.
