1999 - 2000 LEGISLATURE
March 30, 1999 - Introduced by Representative Williams. Referred to Committee
on Urban and Local Affairs.
AB263,1,3
1An Act to amend 349.13 (1g) of the statutes;
relating to: prohibiting 1st class
2cities from charging any person whose residence abuts a highway a fee for
3on-street parking.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, local highway authorities may authorize persons whose
residences abut a highway in a zone where the time of parking is limited by official
signs, markers or parking meters to park their vehicles in the highway zone without
regard to the time limits posted. This bill prohibits first class cities (currently, only
Milwaukee) from charging a fee for this authorization.
For further information see the local 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:
