(1) APPLICABILITY. This section applies to all outstanding state trust fund loans to borrowers other than school districts, drainage districts created under ch. 88, local professional
baseball park districts created under subch. III of ch. 229 , and
federated public library systems.
(2) CERTIFIED STATEMENT. If a borrower other than a school
district has a state trust fund loan, the board shall transmit to the
clerk of the jurisdiction, or the person signing the application on
behalf of the borrower in the case of a cooperative educational
service agency, a certified statement of the amount due on or before October 1 of each year until the loan is repaid. The board
shall submit a copy of each certified statement to the secretary of
administration. A cooperative educational service agency shall
transmit a copy of the statement to the clerk of each school district on behalf of which the agency has obtained a loan.
(3) AMOUNT ADDED TO MUNICIPAL LEVY. Upon receipt of a
certified statement by a municipal clerk, the municipal clerk shall
then cause the amount to be added to the municipal levy and collected in the same manner as the municipal tax except the amount
for the state trust fund loan shall be separately designated. Upon
receipt of a certified statement by a school district clerk from a
cooperative educational service agency, the clerk shall cause the
amount for which the district is responsible under s. 24.61 (7) to
be added to the school district levy and collected in the same
manner as the school district tax, except that the amount for the
loan shall be separately stated. This subsection does not apply to
revenue obligation trust fund loans.
(4) PAYMENT TO BOARD. The treasurer of each municipality
shall remit to the board on its order the full amount due for state
trust fund loans within 15 days after March 15. Each cooperative
educational service agency shall similarly remit the annual
amount owed on any state trust fund loan made to the agency by
that date. Any payment not made by March 30 is delinquent and
is subject to a penalty of one percent per month to be paid to the
board with the delinquent payment.
(6) FAILURE TO MAKE PAYMENTS. If any municipality fails to
remit the amount due by the date specified under sub. (4), the
board shall file a certified statement of the delinquent amount
with the department of administration. The secretary of administration shall collect the amount due, including any penalty, by deducting that amount from any state payments due the municipality, shall notify the treasurer and the board of that action, and
shall immediately remit to the board any amounts deducted from
any state payments due to the municipality.
