9. Policy Problem Addressed by the Rule
| ||||
The proposed revisions are intended to provide consistency of eligibility and reimbursement standards for recreational vehicle patrol units. Inconsistencies include the definition of allowable hours for patrol units, limits to the percentage of reimbursable administrative hours, eligibility to include time law enforcement officers spend teaching safety education classes, and depreciation methods. The proposed revisions would also increase the allowable fringe rate percentage and change the dollar amount of capital equipment and repairs to capital equipment from $1,000 to $2,500 to reflect current day practices and expenditures
The proposed revisions would increase the number of patrol hours required for reimbursement eligibility as follows: all-terrain vehicle from 20 to 40 hours, snowmobile from 20 to 40 hours and waters safety patrol from 40 to 80 hours providing an increased law enforcement presence throughout the state which will have a positive effect on health and safety
The proposed revisions will provide consistency and standardization for the state, counties, and municipalities in the administration of the law enforcement aids program.
| ||||
10. Summary of the businesses, business sectors, associations representing business, local governmental units, and individuals that may be affected by the proposed rule that were contacted for comments.
| ||||
Revisions will affect county sheriff, city, village, township and lake protection districts conducting ATV, snowmobile and water safety patrol activities.
| ||||
11. Identify the local governmental units that participated in the development of this EIA.
| ||||
See list at end of this document.
| ||||
12. Summary of Rule's Economic and Fiscal Impact on Specific Businesses, Business Sectors, Public Utility Rate Payers, Local Governmental Units and the State's Economy as a Whole (Include Implementation and Compliance Costs Expected to be Incurred)
| ||||
Proposed changes will have an overall positive economic impact on the county sheriff's departments and local municipalities identified in the list at the end of this document.
A review of the reimbursement payments for the past three years indicates that increasing the minimum patrol hour requirement could affect 5 ATV patrol units, 12 water safety patrol units and 5 snowmobile patrol units that would have to increase their patrol efforts in order to meet the minimum standards. However, the revision will provide for an increased law enforcement presence thereby providing a positive impact for health and safety.
The revisions propose capping the reimbursable administrative time to 30%, which is close to the amount used for federal grants and other aids program within the State of Wisconsin. While reducing the maximum administrative time allowed will impact patrol unit reimbursement claims, the intent of the law enforcement aids program is to provide reimbursement for law enforcement activities.
An analysis of the 174 patrol claims received for the 2013 boating season and the 2013-2014 ATV and Snowmobile seasons indicates that 78% of the patrols would receive an increase in their reimbursement payment, 10% would see a decrease in their reimbursement payment, and 12% of the patrols would need to increase their patrol numbers in order to meet the minimum standards proposed in this rule.
A final analysis will be completed after public comments are received.
| ||||
13. Benefits of Implementing the Rule and Alternative(s) to Implementing the Rule
| ||||
The proposed revisions will provide consistency of eligibility and reimbursement standards for recreational vehicle patrol units. The revision will also provide for an increased law enforcement presence thereby providing a positive impact for health and safety.
| ||||

None
