The Board concludes the claim should be paid in the reduced amount of $300.00 based on equitable principles. The Board further concludes, under authority of s. 16.007 (6m), Stats., payment should be made from the Department of Natural Resources' appropriation s. 20.370(3)(mi), Stats.

7. Pamela M. Kramer of Gleason, Wisconsin claims $1,287.04 for damage to her vehicle caused by vandals at Big Arbor Vitae Boat Landing and picnic area. The claimant states that she and her husband went fishing at the Big Arbor Vitae Boat Landing for the first time on August 1, 2010. She states that they arrived at 6 AM, launched their boat and parked their vehicle and boat trailer in the parking lot. She states that there were no other vehicles parked in the parking lot and that there were no parking space lines painted. They therefore pulled their vehicle and trailer up to one of the concrete parking curbs placed around the outside of the parking area. The claimant states that when they returned to their vehicle at 7 PM, other vehicles were parked in the middle of the lot, which left their vehicle blocking the turn-around area for the boat launch. They found a note under the windshield of their vehicle chastising them for parking in the middle of the drive and the words "Fuck You" keyed into the driver's side door of their vehicle. The claimant believes that had there been parking lines painted in the lot, this never would have happened. The claimant notes that the DNR has since added painted lines to the lot. The claimant states that she had purchased her vehicle just before this incident and requests reimbursement for the damage. She has received an estimate of $1282.04 to fix the damage and was charged $5.00 for a copy of the police report of this incident. The claimant has vehicle insurance with a $250 deductible.

DNR recommends denial of this claim. The department points to Wisconsin's Recreational Immunity Law, s. 895.52, Stats., which holds DNR harmless for property damage suffered by recreational park users, unless DNR has committed a malicious act. DNR states that the lack of lines in the parking lot was certainly not a malicious act and that there was no requirement that such lines be in place. DNR notes that very few of the approximately 50 parking lots associated with boat ramps in that area have lines painted. DNR staff also notes that regular users of boat landings know to park in the middle of the lot and use the outside to maneuver. DNR states that a reasonable person would have been able to figure this out regardless of the lack of parking lines. The claimant made a mistake which was not only costly to her, but also inconvenienced all the other boat users at Big Arbor Vitae that day, who had difficulty launching their boats because of her parking error. DNR believes there is no legal or equitable basis for payment of this claim.

S26 The Board concludes there has been an insufficient showing of negligence on the part of the state, its officers, agents or employees and this claim is neither one for which the state is legally liable nor one which the state should assume and pay based on equitable principles.

8. Jean A. Rygiel of Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin claims $195.89 for damage to her personal vehicle. The claimant is employed by the DNR in Eau Claire, Wisconsin. On Friday, April 30, 2010, she left her personal vehicle at the Eau Claire office and took a state vehicle home so that she could pick up a coworker in Ladysmith and drive to a meeting in Wausau early Monday morning. The claimant's home is 25 miles closer to Ladysmith than the Eau Claire office, which made bringing the state vehicle home more practical. While the claimant's personal vehicle was parked at the Eau Claire office, vandals struck, damaging her vehicle as well as 14 other vehicles and the office itself. The claimant's windshield was smashed by the vandals. The claimant states that she has liability coverage only and is therefore requesting reimbursement for the full cost of replacing her windshield.

DNR recommends payment of this claim. While it is usually DNR policy to deny claims by employees for damaged personal property, the department believes that the circumstances of this case warrant an exception to that policy. DNR states that it is common practice to leave a personal vehicle overnight at the office while making use of a state vehicle for business purposes. DNR notes that this is a classic "but for" situation - but for the claimant's work related trip and the common practice of leaving personal vehicles at work in such situations, her vehicle would not have been damaged. DNR notes that 12 state vehicles at the Eau Claire office were vandalized, leading to the conclusion that if the claimant had taken her personal vehicle to the meeting and left the state vehicle behind, it would have been vandalized instead. Either way, the department would have sustained a loss. DNR believes that the claimant should be reimbursed based on equitable principles

The Board concludes the claim should be paid in the amount of $198.89 based on equitable principles. The Board further concludes, under authority of s. 16.007 (6m), Stats., payment should be made from the Department of Natural Resources' appropriation s. 20.370(1)(ea), Stats.

9. Speich Oil, Inc. of Brodhead, Wisconsin claims $312.52 for property damage caused by a DATCP inspector. On May 24, 2010, DATCP inspector, Stephen Peters was inspecting meters on the claimant's fuel oil delivery trucks. While inspecting one of the truck meters, the nozzle handle broke off in Mr. Peters' hand. The claimant requests $312.52 to replace the broken nozzle.

DATCP has no objection to payment of this claim. While there is no evidence that Mr. Peters was negligent, the nozzle did break while he was using it. DATCP therefore has no objection to payment of the replacement cost for the equipment.

The Board concludes the claim should be paid in the amount of $312.52 based on equitable principles. The Board further concludes, under authority of s. 16.007 (6m), Stats., payment should be made from the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection's appropriation s. 20.115(1)(j), Stats.

10. Rachel M. Conway of New Berlin, Wisconsin claims $166.63 for out-of-pocket expenses relating to an incident of vandalism to her vehicle. The claimant is a probation agent employed by DOC. She states that on June 30, 2009, she drove her personal vehicle to a meeting at Horizon Halfway House in Milwaukee. The claimant states that she only used her personal vehicle because there were no state vehicles available. The claimant states that as she and her co-worker, Agent Arbogast, pulled out of the parking stall after the meeting, they heard a loud sound and the claimant's rear windshield shattered. The agents left the parking lot quickly due to the possibility they were being shot at. They pulled over after several blocks to call the police and discovered a rock in the back seat, which had apparently been thrown through the claimant's windshield. The claimant had the rear windshield replaced at a cost of $295.63. The claimant's co-workers took up a collection to help her with the expense and raised $129.00. The claimant has a $500 insurance deductible. She requests reimbursement for her remaining out-of-pocket cost of $166.63.

DOC recommends denial of this claim. DOC Fleet Policy states that "damages to the employee's personal vehicle are covered by the employee's own auto insurance and the employee is responsible for the insurance deductible. Under no circumstances will the State's property program pay for the employee's vehicle repairs. It is the employee's responsibility to carry personal auto liability insurance." DOC points to the fact that at no time was the claimant's vehicle under the care, custody or control of DOC and the claimant makes no allegation that the damaged was caused by a DOC employee or agent. This incident appears to be the result of random vandalism. Based on the facts giving rise to this incident and the clear DOC Fleet Policy regarding damage to personal vehicles, DOC believes this claim should be denied.

The Board concludes there has been an insufficient showing of negligence on the part of the state, its officers, agents or employees and this claim is neither one for which the state is legally liable nor one which the state should assume and pay based on equitable principles.

S27 11. Martin V. Elliott of Green Bay, Wisconsin claims $98.70 for the value of property allegedly lost by DOC staff. The claimant is an inmate at Green Bay Correctional Institution. He was placed in segregation on June 23, 2009, following a fight with his cellmate. DOC staff inventoried his property on June 25, 2009, and placed it in a locked storage unit. The claimant states that he made several requests for a copy of the property inventory but never received one. He also states that while he was in segregation, he received letters from several inmates in the general population telling him that his former cellmate was trying to sell two pair of the claimant's shoes. The claimant contacted DOC staff, who informed him that they recovered both pair of shoes. The claimant was released from segregation and received his property back on November 11, 2009. The claimant states that the officer returning his property pushed the claimant into signing the inventory form without checking all of his property. The claimant states that when he finished searching his property, he realized immediately that there were items missing. The claimant alleges that a DOC employee, Sgt. Pagel, witnessed that he was missing property. The claimant filed an inmate complaint on November 13, 2009. The claimant's complaint was denied and he does not believe that DOC conducted a thorough investigation. The claimant believes that the fact his former cellmate had possession of his shoes is proof that DOC staff was negligent in storing his property while he was in segregation. The claimant requests reimbursement for his missing property.

DOC recommends denial of this claim. DOC believes there is no evidence to support the claimant's assertion that DOC staff is responsible for his lost property. DOC notes that the claimant was not in segregation status and had access to his property between June 5th and 25th. DOC points to the fact that a comparison of the February 26 and June 25, 2009, property inventories show that several of the items in question went missing prior to the claimant going to segregation on June 25th. DOC also notes that the claimant's property was returned to him on November 11th but he did not complain of missing items until November 13th. DOC Sgt. Pagel states that on November 11, 2009, the claimant signed his property inventory without going through all of his boxes of property. DOC believes that the claimant had ample opportunity to lose, trade or discard the property before or after he was placed in segregation. DOC believes that his former cellmate's possession of the claimant's shoes is evidence that the cellmate pilfered some of the claimant's property before he was placed in segregation. DOC denies that the department's investigation was inadequate. DOC states that both the claimant and his former cellmate were interviewed several times and searches conducted for the missing property. DOC simply found no evidence that staff was responsible for the property loss.

The Board concludes there has been an insufficient showing of negligence on the part of the state, its officers, agents or employees and this claim is neither one for which the state is legally liable nor one which the state should assume and pay based on equitable principles.

12. Carl Barrett of Boscobel, Wisconsin claims $32.06 for the cost of 5 books allegedly lost by DOC and one kufi cap allegedly stolen by a DOC Officer. The claimant states that he purchased the books in 2008 and that they were missing from his property on October 16, 2009. The claimant notes that other books purchased at the same time were not missing from his property. The claimant filed a complaint about the missing books. The claimant's complaint was denied as being past the 14-day time limit. The claimant states this is not true and that the only delay was caused because DOC did not send a requested receipt copy in a timely manner. The claimant also requests reimbursement for an Islamic prayer cap (kufi). The claimant alleges that his kufi was in his cell prior to a cell search but missing after the search and several of the claimant's personal photos were ripped in half. The claimant alleges that the officer who conducted the search has a long history of harassing him and other inmates. The claimant states that he filed a complaint about the officer's conduct but that DOC always sides with its officers and never really investigated his complaint. The claimant requests reimbursement for his allegedly lost and stolen property.

DOC recommends denial of this claim. DOC states that the claimant was in Administrative Confinement Status on September 23, 2009, and was housed in Echo Unit. The claimant had control of his property in his cell in Echo Unit. The claimant was moved to a new cell in Alpha Unit on October 16, 2009. At that time, his property was packed up and he was given a property receipt. DOC notes that the books claimed as missing are not listed on that property receipt. Thus, during the time frame the claimant alleges the books went missing, they were under his control in his cell, not under the control of DOC staff. DOC states that there is no evidence that the claimant's kufi was stolen and/or pictures damaged by a DOC officer during a cell search. Finally, DOC notes that the claimant has a long history of falsely accusing staff members of misconduct and the department believes that this claim is simply a continuation of that pattern.

The Board concludes there has been an insufficient showing of negligence on the part of the state, its officers, agents or employees and this claim is neither one for which the state is legally liable nor one which the state should assume and pay based on equitable principles.

13. Shafiq Imani of Portage, Wisconsin claims $51.18 for the unreimbursed value of a typewriter lost by DOC staff. The claimant is an inmate at Columbia Correctional Institution. In January 2010, the claimant was placed in segregation and his property, including his typewriter, was inventoried and stored by DOC staff. When the claimant was released from segregation status in April 2010, his typewriter was not returned with the rest of his property. DOC staff searched property storage for the typewriter but determined it had been lost. The full purchase price of the typewriter in 2007 was $127.97. The claimant was reimbursed $76.79 based on the institution's depreciation schedule. The claimant believes he is entitled to be reimbursed for the full purchase price of the typewriter under replevin law. The claimant does not believe the DOC depreciation schedule is legal because DOC staff was clearly negligent in losing his typewriter. The claimant requests reimbursement for the remainder of the purchase price of his typewriter.

DOC believes the claimant has already been fairly compensated and recommends denial of this claim. DOC does not dispute that staff lost or misplaced the claimant's typewriter while it was in storage. The Wisconsin Administrative Code DOC 309.20(5) provides "In case of loss or damage caused by the staff of an institution, the value of an inmate's personal property shall equal its value at the time of loss or damage, not to exceed its purchase price." DOC has established a Depreciation Schedule to determine the values of various items of property. Given the large number of inmates housed by DOC, it is inevitable that personal property will sometimes be misplaced. The Depreciation Schedule provides a fair and uniform method to determine the value of inmate property at the time of the loss. The schedule gives a typewriter a value of 5 useful years, therefore its value depreciates 20% per year. The claimant's typewriter was depreciated by 40% and his reimbursement was calculated based on that depreciation. DOC does not believe he is entitled to any further compensation.

The Board concludes there has been an insufficient showing of negligence on the part of the state, its officers, agents or employees and this claim is neither one for which the state is legally liable nor one which the state should assume and pay based on equitable principles.

S28 14. Robert Kowalkowski of Green Bay, Wisconsin claims $40.40 for the value of property allegedly lost by DOC staff when the claimant was transferred from Oshkosh Correctional Institution (OSCI) to Green Bay Correctional institution (GBCI). The claimant notes that a GBCI property staff member admitted that he "failed to completely fulfill his responsibilities" in inventorying the claimant's property upon receipt at GBCI. The claimant states that he did everything he could to get his property back, including filing an inmate complaint, which was denied. The claimant objects to DOC's statements regarding his criminal history or "poor institutional adjustment." He believes that those issues have nothing to do with this claim and that because the property was lost while under DOC control, he should be reimbursed.

DOC recommends denial of this claim. The claimant was transferred from OSCI to GBCI on January 15, 2010. When he was received at GBCI, the property provided to him was inventoried. DOC states that an inventory staff member has admitted that he did not fully document all items that came to GBCI with the claimant. However, DOC notes that records indicate that the claimant received a significant amount of property that did not belong to him when he arrived at GBCI. DOC states that this appears to show that there was property mix-up of some kind but notes that at no time did the claimant report that he received excess property. DOC also points to the claimant's long history of rule breaking and poor institutional adjustment. DOC notes that the claimant waited a month to file a complaint regarding his allegedly missing property and the department believes that this delay was an attempt to avoid calling the staff's attention to the extra property received by the claimant. DOC properly denied the claimant's inmate complaint as untimely. Finally, DOC believes that if the property was lost by DOC staff, the claimant's delay in filing a complaint and bringing this claim place the department at a disadvantage. Had the claimant timely reported the missing property, the matter would have been investigated promptly, giving staff a better chance of finding the property. DOC believes that the claimant's delay and his "unclean hands" caused by his willingness to keep another inmate's property, warrant denial of this claim.

The Board concludes there has been an insufficient showing of negligence on the part of the state, its officers, agents or employees and this claim is neither one for which the state is legally liable nor one which the state should assume and pay based on equitable principles.

15. Robert Kowalkowski of Green Bay, Wisconsin claims $616.03 for the value of property allegedly improperly destroyed by DOC staff after the claimant was transferred to Green Bay Correctional institution (GBCI). On January 15, 2010, upon arrival at GBCI, the claimant received a property receipt/disposition form from staff, informing him of property that was not allowed at GBCI. The form stated that the claimant needed to provide an address to which he wanted the property mailed within 10 days of a denial of his inmate complaint. The claimant filed an inmate complaint on February 1st but it was returned by the Inmate Complaint Examiner (ICE) for clarification. The claimant filed again on February 16th and the ICE again returned the complaint, this time telling the claimant he needed to attempt to work out the issue with property room staff. On March 3rd the claimant wrote the ICE asking when the 10 day time limit to provide an address began. The examiner replied "Once a decision is made by the ICE the property room sends the item in question out." On March 7th the claimant sent the mailing address to the property room staff. Staff responded that on February 10th, the ICE had informed them that the claimant had failed to file an inmate complaint and therefore property staff destroyed the excess property on February 24th. The claimant believes the destruction of his property was in violation of DOC property rules. He believes that staff violated DOC 309.20 by not providing him with 10 days notice prior to the destruction of his property. He also believes that the rules state that absent a specific address provided by the claimant, excess property should have been mailed out to an individual on his visiting list. The claimant denies that any of the property in question was stolen. He filed a complaint and appeal regarding the destruction of his property, both of which were dismissed.

DOC recommends denial of this claim. At the time of his transfer to GBCI, the claimant possessed an unusually large amount of property, including several items that were clearly altered and therefore declared contraband. The claimant received notice of his disallowed property on January 15th. DOC rules provide that an inmate complaint must be filed within 14 days of the incident, which in this case would have been the receipt of the property notice. The claimant twice filed a complaint but each time it was rejected as improperly filed. The claimant failed to timely file a proper complaint. In addition, the claimant failed to provide an address to which he wished his property mailed within the required 10 day time period. Although the claimant did eventually provide an address, it was well after the expiration of the time limit and the claimant's property had already been destroyed. DOC notes that even if the 10 day limit had not elapsed, GBCI policy gives the institution the right to determine how to dispose of contraband and non-allowable property and the destruction of the property was in compliance with DOC 303. Finally, DOC states that the claimant has a long history of disregard for the property rights of others and clearly does not come before the board with clean hands, since some of the property in question was almost certainly stolen.

The Board concludes there has been an insufficient showing of negligence on the part of the state, its officers, agents or employees and this claim is neither one for which the state is legally liable nor one which the state should assume and pay based on equitable principles.

16. Aquan Mobley of Fox Lake, Wisconsin claims $56.98 for the value of tennis shoes allegedly lost by DOC staff while the claimant was an inmate at Kettle Moraine Correctional Institution. On July 17, 2009, inmate Markese Jones was disciplined for unauthorized possession of the claimant's tennis shoes. The disciplinary decision indicates "Return shoes to Mobley, Aquan" however DOC staff incorrectly destroyed the shoes as contraband on July 16, 2009. On August 13, 2009, the claimant filed an inmate complaint because his shoes had not been returned. The complaint was rejected as past the 14 day time limit. The claimant appealed and the appeal was denied. The claimant believes he should be reimbursed for the shoes which were improperly destroyed by DOC staff.

S29 DOC recommends reimbursement of the claimant in the reduced amount of $7.18. DOC notes that the claimant's inmate complaint and appeal were correctly denied because the claimant failed to follow correct procedures for filing his complaint. However, DOC does not dispute that the shoes were destroyed in error and should have been returned to the claimant. DOC notes that the shoes were purchased in November 2006 and that the original purchase price was $59.83. DOC uses a property depreciation schedule to establish fair and uniform guidelines for reimbursing inmates. The depreciation schedule provides that tennis shoes have a useful life of 3 years and therefore depreciate by 33% for each year of use. Based on the purchase date, the claimant's shoes had depreciated by approximately 88% at the time they were destroyed. DOC therefore recommends reimbursement to the claimant of $7.18, 12% of the original purchase price.

The Board concludes the claim should be paid in the reduced amount of $7.18 based on equitable principles. The Board further concludes, under authority of s. 16.007 (6m), Stats., payment should be made from the Department of Corrections' appropriation s. 20.410(1)(a), Stats.

The Board concludes:

That the following claims are denied:

That payment of the below amounts to the identified claimants from the following statutory appropriations is justified under S 16.007, Stats:

That payment of the below amounts to the identified claimants from the following statutory appropriations is justified under § 775.05, Stats:

The Board recommends:

Payment of $90,000 to Robert Lee Stinson for Innocent Convict Compensation pursuant to s. 775.05, Ststs.

Representative of the Governor

The Honorable, The Legislature:

In accordance with Section 51.06 (8), Wisconsin Statutes, enclosed is a copy of the report on people relocated and diverted from nursing homes, intermediate care facilities for the mentally retarded (ICFs-MR), and State Centers for the Developmentally Disabled in state fiscal year (SFY) 2010. This report provides information related to four programs, the ICF-MR Restructuring Initiative, Relocations from the State Centers for the Developmentally Disabled, the Community Relocation Initiative, and the Nursing Home Diversion Initiative.

The Honorable, The Legislature:

This report is transmitted as required by s. 20.002(11)(f), Wisconsin Statutes, (for distribution to the appropriate standing committees under s. 13.172(3), Wisconsin Statutes) and confirms that the Department of Administration has found it necessary to exercise the "temporary reallocation of balances" authority provided by this section in order to meet payment responsibilities and cover resulting negative cash balances during the month of November 2010.

On November 1, 2010, the Worker's Compensation Fund cash balance closed at a negative $1.6 million (its intra-month low). This negative balance continued through November 16, 2010, when the fund's cash balance closed at a positive $45 thousand. The negative balance was due to the difference in the timing of revenues and expenditures.

On November 1, 2010, the Mediation Fund cash balance closed at a negative $35 thousand. This negative balance continued through November 19, 2010, when the fund's cash balance closed at a positive $300 thousand. The Mediation Fund cash balance reached its intra-month low of a negative $52 thousand on November 18, 2010. The negative balance was due to the difference in the timing of revenues and expenditures.

On November 22, 2010, the Police and Fire Protection Fund cash balance closed at a negative $47.6 million (its intra-month low). This negative balance continued through November 30, 2010, when the fund's cash balance closed at a negative $43.3 million. The negative balance was due to the difference in the timing of revenues and expenditures.

The Worker's Compensation Fund, Mediation Fund, and Police and Fire Protection Fund shortfalls were not in excess of the statutory interfund borrowing limitations and did not exceed the balances of the funds available for interfund borrowing.

S30 The distribution of interest earnings to investment pool participants is based on the average daily balance in the pool and each fund's share. Therefore, the monthly calculation by the State Controller's Office will automatically reflect the use of these temporary reallocations of balance authority, and as a result, the funds requiring the use of the authority will effectively bear the interest cost.

Referred to joint committee on Finance.
