Senate Bill 415 proposes amendments to Wisconsin's campground licensing regulations, specifically targeting small farm owners. The bill allows individuals to operate a campground without a license if the campground is situated on their farm, the farm has no more than one campground, and the campground contains three or fewer campsites. This change aims to reduce regulatory burdens on small-scale farmers who wish to offer camping experiences on their properties.

The bill amends existing statute 97.67 (1) by adding provisions that exempt certain farm owners from the licensing requirements typically enforced by the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection. Specifically, it introduces new language in subsection (1k) to define "farm" and outline the conditions under which a campground can operate without a license. The amendments also clarify that, aside from the new exemptions, individuals or entities must still obtain a license to manage or operate campgrounds and related facilities.
