AB514,140,25 (2) The treatment of section 30.20 (1) (title), (a), (b) 1. and 2., (c), and (d), (2) (title), (a), (b), and (c), (3) (title) and (b), and (4) of the statutes and the renumbering and amendment of section 30.20 (1) (b) of the statutes first apply to contracts applied for on the effective date of this subsection.

AB514,141,3 (3) The treatment of section 30.77 of the statutes first applies to an ordinance relating to the regulation of boating that is enacted or adopted on the effective date of this subsection.

Note: This provision relates to the applicability of amended s. 30.77 to preexisting boating ordinances. The general rule established above is that amended s. 30.77 applies prospectively only. That is, only local boating ordinances enacted after the effective date of the legislation are subject to the amended statute. This allows preexisting ordinances to be judged, in any challenge, by the statutory standards in place when the ordinance was adopted, and does not raise doubts about the authority for preexisting ordinances.

However, if a preexisting ordinance is amended after the effective date of this legislation, this provision makes the newly amended statute applicable to the entirety of the ordinance enacted before the effective date of the legislation. This avoids the confusion that would potentially result if preexisting portions of a boating ordinance were subject to the prior statute, and new or amended portions of the boating ordinance were subject to the amended statute. This does not mean that any portion of a preexisting ordinance must necessarily be amended when any portion of the ordinance is being amended or any new provision is being added to the ordinance. What it means is that a local governmental unit should review the preexisting ordinance in light of the amended statute, to determine if additional changes are necessary.

For the most part, the special committee believes that changes to preexisting ordinances will not be necessary. Most of the requirements in s. 30.77, as amended, are simply restatements and extensions of current statutory requirements.
