Current law requires that any vehicle entering any state park or certain other properties under the jurisdiction of DNR display a vehicle admission receipt (sticker). For a motor vehicle, the driver may be issued an annual or a daily sticker upon payment of a fee. Generally, under current law, the fee for an annual sticker is $24.50 for a Wisconsin vehicle and $34.50 for an out-of-state vehicle. If the person who owns a Wisconsin vehicle is a resident senior citizen, the fee for an annual sticker is $9.50. If the person applying for an annual sticker or a member of his or her household owns a vehicle for which a current annual sticker has been issued, the fee is $12 for a Wisconsin vehicle and $17 for an out-of-state vehicle. This bill increases each of these fees by $3.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows:
