Assembly Bill 243 proposes to create a new statute, 101.05 (7), which exempts amusement rides located at campgrounds licensed by the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection from regulation by the Department of Safety and Professional Services (DSPS), provided these rides are installed according to the manufacturers' recommended standards. Currently, DSPS is responsible for regulating amusement rides, but this bill seeks to alleviate that regulatory burden for campgrounds that meet the specified criteria.

The new legal language specifically states that the existing regulations outlined in sections 101.02 (15), 101.12 (1), and 101.17 (1) will not apply to these exempted amusement rides. This change aims to streamline the regulatory process for campgrounds, potentially encouraging more recreational activities and tourism in Wisconsin.
