cosponsored by Senator Roessler. Referred to Committee on Ways and
Means.
AB749,1,2
1An Act to amend 75.521 (4) of the statutes;
relating to: the alphabetical listing
2of tax liens.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, tax liens are placed on property when the taxes on the
property are delinquent. The clerk of circuit court is required to create a list of the
properties on which liens are placed. The clerk must index the list by year and list
number and also alphabetically by owner. This bill eliminates the requirement that
the list be indexed by owner.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
AB749, s. 1
3Section
1. 75.521 (4) of the statutes is amended to read:
AB749,2,34

5with whom the list of tax liens is filed shall index it by year and list number
, and
6alphabetically by the names of those set forth in the list, under sub. (3) (am) 2., in
7a separate record kept for that purpose and the clerk shall be entitled to a fee of $3
8for receiving, filing and indexing of each such list, in lieu of any other fees to which
1he or she might otherwise be entitled for those services. The circuit court of the
2county in which the delinquent list is filed has jurisdiction of the proceeding
3authorized by this section.
