AB353,1,2
1An Act to create 97.67 (3) of the statutes;
relating to: inspections of
2recreational and educational camps.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, an overnight recreational or educational camp must obtain
a license from the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection or
from the local county or municipal health department. This bill requires DATCP, or
the local health department, when issuing a renewal license to a camp, to waive any
applicable inspection requirement for two out of every three license years if the camp
has been accredited by the American Camp Association. A camp for which the
inspection requirement has been waived must comply with all other applicable
requirements for the camp.
For further information see the state and 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:
AB353,1
3Section 1
