The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows:
Prefatory note: This bill is recommended by the joint legislative council's special committee on general municipal law recodification. The special committee was directed to recodify chapter 66 of the statutes by the process of reorganization into logical subchapters, sections and subunits, repeal of unnecessary or archaic and obsolete language, relocation of those provisions more appropriately placed elsewhere in the statutes and modernization of language where appropriate. The special committee was directed to refrain from recommending substantive changes that would significantly affect relationships between governmental units or engender substantial controversy in the legislative process.
The basis of current ch. 66 was itself a recodification. [
Chapter 396, laws of 1921, effective January 1, 1922.] The creation of ch. 66 was part of an ongoing effort by the revisor of statutes to revise and reorganize Wisconsin statutes relating to municipal law. That effort was the basis for the current organization, by chapter, of Wisconsin statutes relating to cities, villages, towns, counties and to local units of government generally. The original purpose of ch. 66 was to locate in one chapter those statutory provisions applicable to more than one general purpose unit of local government.
When first established, ch. 66 consisted of 11 individual statutory sections, comprising about 17 pages of Wisconsin statutes. When the special committee began the recodification process, ch. 66 consisted of 273 individual sections, comprising 160 pages of the statutes. The expansion of ch. 66 over time has resulted in a vast number of disparate statutory provisions, with little apparent thought given to the internal organization of the chapter. Consequently, the chapter is unwieldy and difficult to use.
This bill:
1. Reorganizes ch. 66 by:
a. Internally reorganizing the chapter by creating 13 subchapters and relocating provisions within the chapter.
b. Reorganizing some individual sections within ch. 66 by combining them with other sections, dividing single sections into 2 or more sections and internally reorganizing single sections.
c. Relocating whole or partial provisions of ch. 66 outside of ch. 66 where appropriate (including the relocation of provisions dealing with metropolitan sewage districts into a new chapter, ch. 200, and moving whole sections of ch. 66 that pertain solely to 1st class cities to subch. II of ch. 62, relating to cities).
2. Makes nonsubstantive, editorial changes to modernize language and reflect modern drafting style, including, in a few instances, comprehensive editorial changes by entirely restating the current provision.
3. Repeals several entire sections and portions of sections that the special committee concluded are no longer necessary.
4. Makes substantive changes that the special committee concluded are relatively noncontroversial.
The special committee explicitly intends that, unless expressly noted, this bill makes no substantive changes in the statutory provisions treated by the bill. Substantive changes in the bill are identified in notes to the provisions substantively affected. If a question arises about the effect of any modification made by this bill, the special committee intends that the revisions in this bill be construed to have the same effect as the prior statutes.
For convenience, a table of contents listing all section numbers of reorganized ch. 66 and the newly created subchapters is included in this prefatory note. Also, a finding aid is included at the end of the bill which identifies the treatment by this bill of current statutory provisions within ch. 66.
The remainder of this note consists of a table of contents for reorganized ch. 66:
