Referred to Committee on Corrections.

1 AN ACt to renumber and. amend,40.05 (2) (ar); to a,mend, 4a.02(4s) (b) 3., 40.02 2 (a8) (c) and 40.23 (3) (a); and to ereate 40.02 (17) (n), 40.02 (48) (am) 23., 40.o2 3 (48) (b) 6., 40.05 (1) (a) 7., 40.A6 (2) (ap), 4A.05 (2) (ar) 2., 4A.23 (3) (c), 40.65 (4w), 4 59.52 (8m) and 111.70 (a) &n) of the statutes; relating to: classiffing county 5 jailers as protective occupation participants under the Wisconsin Retirement 6 System and the treatment of county jailers under the Municipal Employment 7 RelaLions Act.

Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau Under current law, participants under the Wisconsin Retirement System (WRS) whose principal duties involve active law enforcement or fire suppression or prevention and require freqrrent exposure to a high degree ofdanger or peril and a high degree ofphysical conditioning are classified as protective occupation participants. Cument law classifies police officers, fire fighters, and various other

https ://docs.legis.wisconsin. gov/20 1 9 /relatedl proposals/ab5 2t1sDA19 Page 2 of6

individuals as protective occupation participants. Under the WRS, the normal retirement age of a protective occupation participant is lower than that of other participants and the percentago multiplier used to calculate retirement annuities is highe r for p rotective occupation participants. This bill classifies county jailers as protective occupation participants without a requirement that their principal duties involve active law enforcement or active

fire suppression or prevention. The bill defines county jailers as persons employed by a county whose principal duties involve supervising, controlling, or maintaining a jail or persons confined in a jail, regardless of whether the jailers have been sworn regarding their duties or whether they serve on a full-time basis. Under the bill, county jailers who become protective occupation participants on or after the bill's effective date and are employed by a county that did not classifu county jailers as protective occupation participants on July 1, 2018, are required to pay all additional employer coste resulting from their classification as protective occupation participants, including the cost of the duty disability program. County jailers who were elassified as protective occupation participants before the bill's effective date and county jailers hired on or after the bill's effective date in counties that did classifu countyjailers as protective occupation participants on July 1, 20r.8, are not required to pay the additional employer costs. The bill also allows a county jailer to elect at the time of hire not to become a protective occupation participant. Finally, under the Municipal Employment Relations Act, public safety employees may collectively bargain over wages, hours, and conditions of employment, and general employees may bargain collectively over only an annual perrentage wage increase ihat does not exceed the annual percentage increase in the consumer price index. Under MERA, public safety employees and general employees may not be in the same collective bargaining unit. This bill amends MERA so that a couniy that treats a county jailer as a public safety employee on the effective date of this bill shall continue to treat any person it employs as a county jailer as a public safety employee except that, if the county subsequently raises a question regarding the appropriateness of including county jailers in a collective bargaining unit containing public safety employees, no person the counf employs as a county jailer may be treated as a public safety employee. Because this bill relates to public employee retirement or pensions, it may be referred to the Joint Survey Committee on Retirement Systems for a report to be printed as an appendix to the bill. For further information see the state and local Iiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.

Kathy Schleive, Waupun City Administrator Kathv@ciWofwa up u n.o rs 920-324-7972 BJ DeMaa, Waupun Fire Chief [email protected] 920-324-7gLO We are having an open meeting to determine what we need to do in order to continue to provide good EMS service to our communities. Lonnie Fredrick began the conversation regarding staffing issues with EMS and invited Alyssa Cahoon to speak to the group regarding the Town of Lebanon experience.

Alyssa Cahoon - Town of Lebanon EMS - Lebanon uses Town of Watertown FD for staffing during the day. Sunday- Thursday Lebanon has a scheduling officer that notifies Watertown who is available to respond. Lebanon has a cross credential agreement with Hustisford FD which is a non -transporting unit. Watertown keeps track of calls and bills Lebanon SZSO for the calls. Lebanon then bills the community the call went to. ls Watertown okay with the current circumstance? Gregg from Watertown stated that the City is currently okay with the current arrangement. Community impact has been negligible

The Lebanon Crew has been very effective at letting the agency that is covering for them know when they don't have a crew....which helps response times.

Territorial EMS days are coming to a close. We need a better way to provide EMS services to our communities. Will probably have to be fully manned rather than rely upon volunteer staffing.

Credentials have changed significantly which creates a tremendous burden on the person who wants to volunteer. Certifications, continuing education, long commutes for training and classes, classes cancelled. The State technical colleges provide the education, but they don't make it easy and the numbers attending the classes is inconsistent. The class times and locations are challenging for participants. There is not funding for educating volunteers. There are not any state reliefs built into the levys to provide a way for communities to pay for full time staff.

There are some alternatives available for continuing education; the initial training is a huge challenge. The Unit meeting brought up a couple of county wide EMS systems

The additional challenge is that the EMS staff is aging. How do we replace the retiring staff? There are not enough younger people stepping up to volunteer.

We have broadly identified the problem(s), but what is the next step? How do we prioritize the issues at hand? Who do we need to convince? Who is the audience? How do we get the County involved? How do we manage the "politics" of EMS programs already in place in our communities and get them to work together? How do we merge services, staff, and equipment into a new system?

We need to investigate other models. How do they initiate county wide systems? There is no single model....

There is a preliminary draft of bill LRB-4374/P3, that is an act to amend exceptions from local levy limits for certain emergency medic al systems and excluding emergency medical system expenditures from the determination of expenditure restraint payments.

The state needs to replace the levy cap with funds to pay for full time EMS staff. Funding is a critical point - we need to communicate to the electors that we need to levy to pay for the EMS

Beaver Dam runs a split cost to the townships they cover for 5500 - the towns they serve issue a tax levy for the EMS costs Marshall has hired 2 full time staffers - paid on call to be there - a lot of the staff is medical students from the Madison area. Wisconsin office of Rural Health association money for EMS - curator for the rural physicians program We need transporting units, wheels on the road - maybe split the county in 4 quadrants

Walworth County has hired a consultant (Fred Hornsby?) to survey the county need

Lohny suggests that the next employee communities hire would be a dual purpose employee - snow plow/EMS, for example. This creates other issues around payroll, overtime

The trend seems to be that communities need to affiliate with another service

This needs to be a topic for the upcoming ANNUAL MEET|NGS....

Additionalfunding will be required for EMS and Fire services.

Funding formulas are at issue - lose ownership, lose pride - losing local control, pride in ownership will be a huge issue

Hartford - Advanced EMT service - 16 hour shifts paid - on premise - user fee basis --look at Hartford model Theresa has full time and part time ambulance staff and many volunteers

We need the smaller communities to participate in the committee -

Lohny will follow up with Walworth, he is also going to talk to the WTA to attempt make this a convention topic.

He asks those present to do some homework, think about what the goal is - self-contained EMS, affiliate, volunteers

Hiring staff has issues around how to fund the salaries and to not alienate the volunteer staff.

Amy Nehls will send out an email to EMS coordinators in the county to inform them of our initial action and encourage additiona I participation.

SHARED REVENUE UTILITY PAYIITIENTS

Public utilities are generally exemptfrom local property taxes and taxed instead by the state under Chapter 76 of the statutes. Utility shared revenue payments help municipalities and counties pay for the services they provide to tax-exempt utility property. The payments are also viewed as partial compensation for "disamenities" such as air pollution, noise, traffic congestion, and limitations on land use that are created by certain types of utility propefi.

During the 2003-04 biennium, several changes were made to how utility shared revenues are calculated, effective with payments in 2005. This paper discusses the "old" formula in effect through 2004 and the "new" formula.

Old Formula

Under the "old" formula, utility shared revenue payments were a first draw on the general shared revenue appropriation. The payment consisted of three components, as follows:'

Component 1: Ad Valorem Payment

Thls component was based on the "net book value" of "qualiffing propefi" for "eligible utilities". The total payment was 9 mills on "net book value". For property in a town, the town was paid 3 mllls and the county was paid 6 mills. For property in a village or city, the village or city was paid 6 mills and the coun$ was paid 3 mills. The total value of "qualiffing property" in a municipalig could not exceed $125 million per utility company or, for a property owned by two or more utilities, $125 million for that property.

"Net book value" was the original cost of the property minus depreciation. For regulated entities, depreciation was calculated as prescribed by the Wisconsin Public Service Commission (generally on a straight-line basis) except that depreciation for nuclear electric generating plants excluded funds set aside for decommissioning. For non-regulated entities, depreciation was to be reported on a straight-line basis, similar to what would have been required if they were regulated.

"Qualiffing property" jncluded production plant, substations, and generalstructures, but excluded the land on which such property was located. For an electric utility, production plant consisted of generating station property such as structures and improvements; boilers, reactors, reseryoirs, dams, watenruays, fuelholders; engines, prime movers, generating equipment; and accessory equipment. For a gas utility, production plant consisted of peak-shaving facilities (where piopane or some other gas is mixed with air at times of peak load). For electric utilities, substation (facilities that connect the local distribution lines to the electric transmission system) property included structures, improvements, and measuring equipment. For gas utilities, substation (facilities that connect the local distribution lines to interstate gas transmission pipelines) property included structures, improvements, and measuring equipment. For both gas and electric utilities, general structures included office buildings, garages, maintenance facilities, and related structures. 2

"Eligible utilities" included: (1) private companies that produce, transmit, or distribute electricity or gas in more than one municipality; (2) electric cooperatives; (3) municipal utilities (for the property located outside the municipality that owns the utility) (4) municipal electric association projects (multi-municipal entities that own electric plants andlor purchase and transmit electric power); and (5) qualified wholesale electric companies (entities that sell 95% or more of their power at wholesale and have a total generating capacity of 50 megawatts or more).

For payment purposes, a municipali$'s net book value could not be less than its net book value as of December 31, 1989, excluding the value of property removed since that date. ln addition, if gualising utility property was annexed, the municipality that lost the property continued to receive payments. The first yea/s payment afier annexation equaled the payment attributable to the annexed property. The payment was reduced to $0 in equal amounts over the next five years.

Component 2: Spent nuclear fuel storage

A payment of $50,000 was made to any municipality and any county in which spent nuclear fuel was stored on December 31 of the prior year. !f the nuclear fuel storage facility was located within one mile of another municipality or county, the municipali$ or county where the fuel was stored received M0,000 and the nearby municipality or county received $10,000.

Component 3: Minimum payment

The payment to a municipality or county with an electric generating ptant having a rated capacity of 200 megawatts or more could not be less than $75,000.

For municipalities, payments underthe ad valorem and minimum payments could not exceed $300 per capita. For counties, payments under the ad valorem and minimum payments could not exceed $100 per capita. The limits were calculated using cunent (payment) year population data. (Population estimates are developed by the Wsconsin Department of Administration.)

Payments under the "old" formula had been made for several years through 2001. Although "old" formula payments were calculated for 2002 and 2003, a provision of 2001 Act 16 effectively suspended using these calculations for purposes of determining actual payments. The amounts actually paid in 2A02 equaled 1o1o/o of payments in 2001 , and the amounts actually paid in 2003 equaled 1Q1olo of the payments in2002. (These calculations were based on the total shared revenue payment, of which the utilfu payment is a portion.) Under provisions of 2001 Act 109, payments under the "old" formula were reinstatedfor 2004.

Total municipal and county shared revenue utitity payments under the "old" formula since 1996 are shown in Table 1. TABLE 1 MUNICIPAL AND COUNTY SHARED REVENUE UTILITY PAYMENTS: 1996-2004 Municipal Gounty Total Year Utility Payment Utility Payment Utility Payment 1996 $ 11,201,678 s 11,191,967 $ 22,393,645 1997 12,0U,128 11,677,494 23,711,6?2 1998 11,915,612 11,612,877 23,528,489 1999 12,213,717 11,894,763 24,108,480 2000 13,137,368 13,041,'163 26,178,531 2oo1 '|.3,911,574 '14,432,596 28,344,170 2042 14,050,690(*) 15,122,179 29,172,869(*) 2003 14,19',1,197() 16,322,668 30,513,865(*) 2004 16,722,923 17,082,483 33,805,406 () - Formula payments for municipalities were suspended for these years. Only the coun$ utili$ paymentwas effectively paid.

New Formula

The "new" formula" for shared revenue utility payments was enacted by 2003 Wsconsin Acts 31 and 89. The "new''formula was first used to calculate payments in 2005. The "nevy''formula has six components.

Component 1: Ad valorem PaYment

The "old" formula payment is retained for substation properly, general structures, gas production plants, and electric generating stations that were in operation before January 1, 20gp,. The net book value of any ash disposal facility that was owned by an electric cooperative as of July 29,2003, is doubled.

Component 2: Spent nuclear fuel storage

The "old" formula payment is retained with no changes.

Component 3: Minimum payment

The "old" formula minimum payment is retained except that it applies only to those electric generating stations that were in operation before January 1,2004.

Component 4: Megawatt-based payment

' This payment applies to electric generating plants that begin operating or were repowered (reconsiructed, rebuilt, or remodeled) after December 31, 2003. The payment is $2,000 per megawatt (Mtr10 of name-ptate generating capacity. For plants in a town, one-third ($666.67) is paid to the town and two-thirds ($1,333.33) is paid to the county. For plants in a village or city, two-thirds ($1,333.33) is paid to the village or city and one-third ($666.67) is paid to the counU. lf a plant is in two or more municipalities or counties, the payment.is shared among the municipalities or counties based on the net book value in each municipality or county as of December 31,2OM, or the date the plant becomes operational, whichevor date is later. 4

Component 5: lncentive PaYments

Power plants that qualify for the megawatt-based payment may also qualifiT for incentive payments. lncentive payments are in addition to megawatt-based payments. A power plant may qualiff for one, two, or allthree incentive payments.

For a non-nuclear powered plant with a name-plate capaci$ of at least 1 MWthat is built on the site of or adjacent to an existing power plant, a decommissioned power plant, or a brownfield, the municipality and county receive $600 per MW.

For a power plant with a name-plate capacity of at least 50 MW classfied by the PSC as a base load plant (meaning it is expected to operate at least 60% of the time), the municipality and county receive a payment of $600 per MW.

For a power plant with a name'plate capacity of at least 1 MW that derives some or all of its energy fom a renewable source, the municipality and county receive a payment of $1,000 per MW piorated to reflect the percentage of energy used that comes ftom renewable sources. For a power plant with a name-plate capacity of at least I MW that is a cogeneration facili$, the municipality and county receive a payment of $1,000 per MW. lf a power plant qualifies for both payments, the cogeneration payment takes precedence. lf a production plant that qualifies for incentive payments is located in two or more municipalities or counties, the incentive payments are shared among the municipalities and counties based on the net book value in each municipality or county as of December 31 ,2004, or the date the plant becomes operational, whichever date is later.

Component 6: Per capita limit

The total paymont from the ad valorem, minimum payment, and megawaft-based components of the "new"-formula may not exceed $300 per capita for municipalities and $100 per capita for counties. Payments under the spent nuclear fuel storage and incentive payment components are exempt from this limit. lnitial payments under the megawatt-based and incentive payments are made in the year after the plinibecomes operationa!. Thus, for a plant that begin operation or is repowered in 2005, the first megawatt-based and incentive payments forthat plant will be made in 2006.

Payments under the "new" utility shared revenue formula are made from two appropriations. Payments under the ad valorem, spent nuclear fuel storage, and minimum payment components (about equalto payments underthe "old" formula) are made from the appropriation under sec. 20. 835 (1) (d) - Shared revenue account. Payments under the megawatt-based and incentive portions of the "new" formula are paid fiom s.20.635 (1) (dm) - Public utility distribution account. Utility payments for 2005 were as follows:

Pavment Counties Municipalities Total Ad valorem, nuclear storage, and minimum payments $ 15,948,320 $ 15,775,190 $31,723,510 Megawatt{ased 936,667 473,393 1,310,000 lncentives 394.200 394 200 788,400 Total $'17.'176.187 $16.&2.723 $ 33,818,910

Utility payments for 2006 are estimated to be as follows:

Utility payments for 2007 are estimated to be as follows:

Pavment Counties Municipalities Total Ad valorem, nuclear storage, and minimum payments $ 16,037,916 $ 15,871,840 $ 31,909,756 Megawatt-based 2,500,000 2,000,000 4,500,000 lncentives 871.200 871,20A 1.742.404 ToEI s 19.409.116 $ 18.743.040 $ 38.152.156

Municipalities and counties are notified of their estimated payment for the coming year on or about September 15 of the year before the payment is made. Payments are distributed as follows: 15% of the estimated payment is distributed on the fourth Monday in July, and the remaining 85% is paid on the third Monday in November. Any adjustments to the payment (due to conections in value, megawatts, or population) will be made on the third Monday in the following November.

RE: Analysis of utility tax payments to counties since 2015

To help us best analyze the Department of Revenue (DOR) payout to individual counties as well as the total dollars, attached is a chart that summarizes data by year to individual counties. On average, from 2075'2Ot9, counties gained LO.O\% total from expected tax payments, based on what was distributed by the DOR. lt does not acknowledge, however, how much more was collected by the state under the ad valorum and gross receipt taxes for all utililies.

Under its distribution formula, the DOR has created winners and losers, thereby splitting a desire on the part of some counties who have fared well, to want to consider changing the formula. This does not appear to not serve our arguments about declining utility tax revenue either. Total dollars hauled in the front door and what we believe should be a higher percentage of dollars returned to local government.

Our strongest argument appears to be is that while utilities have increased in value, disbursements to counties have remained relatively flat or declined slightly.

. Of all 25 counties that lost money, 10 of them were WCUTA members. - WCUTA members losing proportionately more money than non-WCUTA members? - County size, location? o Of all 47 counties that saw in an increase in revenue, nine were WCUTA members. o From 2078-2019, a county could expect to gain a 5.55% utility tax payment increase compared to the previous year, on average compared to all other counties in the state. Most counties gained tax payments, while few lost. However, most counties (39) stayed within a 3.SYo margin, either positive or negative, from the previous year.

Proposed 2019 Legislative Strategy

Counties receive approximately 74% of totaltax collections in the form of utility aid. lf DOR was required to distribute 20% of the gross receipts tax collected from utilities, counties would receive about 2O% ot the taxes assessed to utilities.

Example below if formula had been at 20%:

To: Dodge County Execgtive Committee From: Jim Mielke \\ .. ,.. Date: February 26,2019 }\U \ n Re: ThriveED f,'unding Prbfoosal (No Action Requested)

Draft Proposal: On January 21"t, ameeting was held in Watertown to discuss potential changes to Dodge County funding provided to ThriveED. Attending were Vicki Pratt, Ben Wehmeier - Jefferson County. Dodge County attendees were, Chair Kottke, Nate Olson, Bill Ehlelrbeclq and me.

The discussion focused on potential changes to the funding structure to have the Dodge County funding align with Jefferson County at $1.50 per capita. The additional fundir,g would provide an opportunity to add an additional professional position to the ThriveEd staff. The goal with an additional position is to have the individual allocated 75%oto Dodge County, with the lsf,naining time allocated to Jefferson County. The proposed position would have an office in the Dodge County Administration Building and work closely with Nate Olson.

At this time, your feedback is being solicited along with questions with the understanding the overall issue would be brought back before the Executive Committee in April. Economic Development Proposal

lncrease Dodge County Funding for Economic Development Efforts to Match Support from Jefferson County Government

Background:

ThriveED (formerly GHDP) has had great success since its creation in Fall 20L6. The organization continues to have a robust pipeline of opportunities, has several successes under its belt (wins impacting over 100 jobs and resulting in over S20 million in new business investment), and is seeing significant increases in website traffic since launch LO/L8.

Jefferson and Dodge counties' unique structure is a one-of-a-kind in Wisconsin and its working. ThriveED and their public-sector counterpart, Jefferson County Economlc Development Consortium UCEDC) have a solid Strategic Plan and prepare an ambitious annual Plan of Work to keep them focused on shared desired outcomes.

This proposal was developed to promote taking Dodge County's economic development engagement to the next level. The proposal identifies severa! key areas of work that should be possible to deliver to Dodge County, provided funding is increased to support the staff level necessary to deliver. These are:

1. Running a robust Business Retention & Expansion Program. Such a program ensures: a. Existing primary industry sector businesses are visited regularly to ensure that they are aware of all resources available to them to support their business; and b. ThriveED is aware of any 'red flags'; i.e., concerns that surface from targeted visits that could be harmfulto the continuation of the business; c. ThriveED is aware of businesses investment/expansion needs and can deliver solutions to ensure that the new investment occurs in Dodge County. ldentifying individuals/potential entrepreneurs and offering assistance designed to help them establish a business in the County 3. Working with municipa! leaders in the County on ED or Community Development related projects that either ThriveED or Dodge County Government might be able to assist. 4. Additional representation on ThriveED and JCEDC Boards. Given that the flow of financial support thus far has been from Dodge to Jefferson County; it is the JCEDC Board that manages the budget that is controlled by Jefferson County. The employees dedicated to completing the work of ThriveED are Jefferson County staff. With this in mind, this proposal also allows for the addition of a seat by a member to be selected by Dodge County, to serve on the Jefferson County Economic Development Consortium; and further proposes another seat on the ThriveED board of directors.

Funding Considerations:

o Currently, Jefferson County and eight municipalities currently support ED efforts at a cost of S1.SO per (using ESRI population numbers). This amounts to 5217,598 for 20L9. o Dodge County, with a population of 89,949 (2018 DOA number), is currentty supporting ED services at S.g+ per head, for a total of S85,000/year. To support ED at the same level as Jefferson County government, that number would increase to $L34,923.50. This represents an increase of 549,923.50 at 2018 population levels. o We encourage Dodge County to consider increasing its support to the S1.SO per person levelto begin mid-year 2Ot9. Doing so would require an additional 524,96L.75 for calendar year 2OLg.

o With a funding increase at mid-year, ThriveED could enter into a contract with a seasoned Business Development professional to start July L, ZOL9.

Bringing on a Business Development Professional:

ThriveED has access to a network of people with solid economic development experience. Finding the right candidate willing to work under contract in a tight labor market might prove challenging, however if funding was secure for a period of time, say 2-3 years; this would give greater assurance to a qualified candidate. ThriveED has a job description for such a candidate prepared; the work being focused on business development. lf funding is secured in time; Thrive ED would work to have a BD professional begin July L,2oL9;with75o/o of time devoted solely to outreach to existing Dodge county businesses and working with Nate Olson on product improvement issues related to enhancing Dodge County's competitiveness; and 25o/o of time devoted to assisting with other ThriveED initiatives (outreach to groups/presentations/investor relations support, etc.). The proposal would be for a multi-year (2-3 years) contract; renewable for another 2 years as needed. a The BD person would have offices in Dodge County; to be offered by Land Resources. a Additionally, Dodge County would provide the BD professionalwith a cell phone and cover all costs accordingly. Jefferson County would provide the BD professional with a computer and access to all necessary software to track all ED activities. . Comparative Salaries: A seasoned BD professional as a Full Time hire in a rura! area is generally in the SgO-Sf fO,O0O/year range; or at least Sa3/hr. Hiring an ED Consulting firm to provide BRE services would cost in the S175-S225/hour range. lf we propose to hire a BD professional as a 1099 consultant, we should consider offering at least SSO/hour plus mileage at the Federal rate. lf the person could begin workT/L/L9, ThriveED would enter into a not-to-exceed contract of 552,000 for 2OL9; and going forward to 2O2O, a not to exceed of 5106,000 for 2O2O (not including mileage reimbursement).

Future Fundlng Considerations:

o The current contract for economic development services between Jefferson and Dodge County would need to be modified to accommodate this proposed change. o tf Dodge County deems it appropriate, ThriveED might assist with outreach to municipalities within the county, focused on their financia! engagement in broader economic development efforts; similar to Jefferson County's program.
