(6) If the division of criminal investigation in the department of justice chooses not to investigate a report under sub. (5), coordinate an investigation of the suspected criminal activity with local law enforcement officials and district attorneys.

563.055 (1) If the holder of a license issued under this chapter pays a fee required under s. 563.13 (4), 563.22 (2) or 563.92 (2) by check and the check is not paid by the bank upon which the check is drawn, the board department may cancel the license on or after the 60th day after the board department receives the notice from the bank, subject to sub. (2).

563.055 (2) (intro.) At least 20 days before canceling a license, the board department shall mail a notice to the holder that informs the holder that the check was not paid by the bank and that the holder's license may be canceled on the date determined under sub.

563.055 (2) (b) Pays the charge for an unpaid draft established by the depository selection board state treasurer under s. 20.905 (2).

563.055 (3) Nothing in sub. (1) or (2) prohibits the board department from extending the date for cancellation to allow the holder additional time to comply with sub. (2) (a) and (b).

563.10 Rules governing commingling of receipts restricted. Notwithstanding ss. 227.11 (2), 227.24 (1) (a) and 563.04 (3), the board department may not promulgate any emergency rule relating to the commingling of bingo and raffle receipts unless it can clearly establish that commingling will occur without such rule and that the rule will effectively prevent commingling. The board department shall set forth any such finding in its proposed rule. If upon review under s. 227.40, the court finds that the finding of fact upon which any emergency rule relating to such commingling is based is unsupported by clear and convincing evidence, the rule is invalid.

Except as provided in sub. (1m), a license issued under this subsection shall be effective for one year from the first day of the month of the first occasion listed on the license and may be renewed annually, except that an applicant organization may request that the license expire on the first day of any month within the one-year licensure period.

563.15 (1m) A license issued under sub. (1) to an organization listed under s. 563.11 (1) (b) to (d) shall remain in effect unless it is canceled, suspended or revoked by the board department or withdrawn by the organization.

563.16 Amendment of license to conduct bingo.

An application for an amendment to a license shall be filed and processed in the same manner as an original application. An application for the amendment of a license shall be accompanied by a $3 fee. If any application for amendment seeks approval of additional bingo occasions or designates a new member responsible for the proper utilization of gross receipts, the appropriate fee under s. 563.13 (4) also shall be paid. If the board department approves an application for an amendment to a license, a copy of the amendment shall be sent to the applicant who shall attach it to the original license.
