SB715,1,2
1An Act relating to: revising various provisions of the statutes for the purpose
2of making corrections and reconciling conflicts (Correction Bill).
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
This correction bill, prepared by the Legislative Reference Bureau under s.
13.92 (1) (bm) 1. and 2. and (2) (i) and (L), stats., is explained in the Notes in the body
of the bill.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
SB715,1,95
7.31
(5) The commission shall conduct regular training programs to ensure
6that individuals who are certified by the commission under this section are
7knowledgeable concerning their authority and responsibilities. The commission
8shall pay all costs required to conduct the training programs from the appropriation
9under s.
20.511 20.510 (1) (bm).
Note: Inserts correct cross-reference. Section 20.511 (1) (bm) was renumbered to
s. 20.510 (1) (bm) by
2015 Wis. Act 118.
Note: There is no conflict of substance. As merged by the legislative reference
bureau, s. 7.315 (1) (b) 1. reads:
1. Each inspector other than a chief inspector and each special voting deputy
appointed under s. 6.875 shall view or attend at least one training program every 2 years
during the period beginning on January 1 of each even-numbered year and ending on
December 31 of the following year. Except as provided in subd. 2., no individual may serve
as an inspector, other than a chief inspector, or as a special voting deputy under s. 6.875
at any election unless the individual has completed training for that election provided by
the municipal clerk pursuant to rules promulgated under par. (a) within 2 years of the
date of the election.
Note: There is no conflict of substance. As merged by the legislative reference
bureau, s. 7.315 (1) (b) 2. reads:
2. Only when an individual who has received training under subd. 1. is unavailable
to perform his or her election duties due to sickness, injury, or other unforeseen
occurrence may an individual who has not received training under subd. 1. be appointed
to serve as an inspector, other than chief inspector, or a special voting deputy. The
appointment of an individual to serve under this subdivision shall be for a specific election
and no individual may be appointed under this subdivision more than one time in a
2-year period beginning on January 1 of each even-numbered year and ending on
December 31 of the following year.
SB715,3,27
11.0102
(3) (j) Determine whether each report or statement required to be filed
8under this chapter has been filed in the form and by the time prescribed by law, and
9whether it conforms on its face to the requirements of this chapter. The officer shall
10immediately send to any committee that is delinquent in filing, or that has filed
11otherwise than in the proper form, a notice that the committee has failed to comply
12with this chapter. Whenever a candidate committee has appointed an individual
1other than the candidate as campaign treasurer, the
commission officer shall send
2the notice to both the candidate and the treasurer of the candidate committee.
Note: Inserts the correct term. Section 11.0102 (3) (intro.) requires “each filing
officer, other than the commission" to take the actions under sub. (3) (a) to (j) and creates
no obligations for the ethics commission. Section 11.0102 (3) (j), as created by
2015 Wis.
Act 117, was derived from and is nearly identical to the previously existing s. 11.22 (9),
which placed the obligation in the 3rd sentence to send the notice on the filing officer.
SB715,3,75
15.61
(3) No member, while serving on the
board commission, may become a
6candidate, as defined in s. 11.0101 (1), for state office or local office, as defined in s.

Note: Makes terminology consistent with changes made by
2015 Wis. Act 118.
Section 15.61 (3) was renumbered from s. 15.60 (6) by Act 118. Section 15.60 related to
the creation and membership of the Government Accountability Board. Section 15.61
relates to the creation and membership of the Elections Commission.
SB715,3,1810
16.855
(22) The provisions of this section, except sub. (10m), do not apply to
11construction work for any project that does not require the prior approval of the
12building commission under s. 13.48 (10) (a) if the project is constructed in accordance
13with policies and procedures prescribed by the building commission under s. 13.48
14(29). If the estimated construction cost of any project, other than a project exempted
15under sub. (12m)
or (24), is at least $50,000, and the building commission elects to
16utilize the procedures prescribed under s. 13.48 (29) to construct the project, the

18to be utilized to construct the project on a publicly accessible computer site.

and 350.12 (3h) (ag) 1. a., as affected by

whom the license, permit, certificate, or card was issued may apply to the department for

investigation as it considers necessary. If the department is satisfied that the loss has
been proven, the department may issue a duplicate license, permit, certificate, or card to
the applicant. Tags issued with a license, permit, certificate, or card are parts of the
license, permit, certificate, or card and loss of any part is considered to be loss of the entire
license, permit, certificate, or card. Upon applying for a duplicate license, permit,
certificate, or card, the original is no longer valid and the applicant shall surrender all
parts of the original remaining in his or her possession to the department. No person may
possess any original license, permit, certificate, or card for which a duplicate has been

was issued is required to apply for and pay the regular fee in order to receive a new stamp.
