Assembly Bill 1182 establishes a grant program administered by the Department of Administration (DOA) to support municipalities and community organizations in obtaining Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification for their buildings. The bill defines a municipality as a city, village, or town and outlines the purpose of the grant program, which is to assist these entities in achieving LEED certification from the Green Building Certification Institute, a globally recognized green building rating system.

Additionally, the bill creates a new section in the statutes, 16.037, to formalize the grant program and includes a provision for ongoing funding through a new appropriation section, 20.505 (1) (cp). This ensures that the necessary financial resources are allocated for the program, as indicated in the accompanying fiscal estimate. The bill aims to promote sustainable building practices within Wisconsin's municipalities and community organizations.
