1An Act to amend 20.866 (1) (u) and 42.12 (1); and
to create 20.505 (1) (cs) and
242.11 (4) of the statutes;

Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill authorizes the State Fair Park Board (SFPB) and the Department of
Administration (DOA) to sell the Olympic Ice Training Center at State Fair Park and
associated land and parking areas, not to exceed 10.15 acres, to Pettit National Ice
Center, Inc., for not less than $5,264,000, reduced by any amount of principal paid
after June 30, 2006, on the debt incurred to finance the center, on the condition that
the center continue to be used primarily as an ice skating rink and training facility
for recreational and competitive skating purposes. Under the bill, the center may
only be sold if the conveyance provides that: 1) the Pettit National Ice Center, Inc.,
not lease the center without the approval of SFPB; and 2) if the Pettit National Ice
Center, Inc., subsequently elects to sell the center, the state has first option to
purchase the center for $5,264,000.
Under the bill, if SFPB and DOA sell the center, an amount equal to the sum
of interest payments on obligations incurred to finance the construction of the center
that were paid after June 30, 2005, and before the sale of the center and the past-due
lease payments for the center must be credited to SFPB from the proceeds of the sale.
The balance of the proceeds are then credited to a bond security and redemption fund
to repay the principal and interest on the outstanding debt on the center.
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
