Senate Bill 19 proposes to amend existing law regarding vehicle admission receipts for state parks in Wisconsin. The bill mandates that the Department of Natural Resources waive the fee for an annual vehicle admission receipt for parents or guardians of children who possess a valid Every Kid Outdoors pass issued by the U.S. National Park Service. This pass allows free admission to national parks for 4th graders and their families, and the bill aims to extend similar benefits to state parks.
Additionally, the bill includes an amendment to the title of a section related to fee waivers for service members, changing it to reflect the inclusion of service members in the context of annual vehicle admission receipt fee waivers. The new legal language created under section 27.01 (9) (bg) outlines the specific conditions under which the fee waiver applies, ensuring that it is available for vehicles owned by eligible parents or guardians.
