Analysis

This resolution authorizes the proper City officials to enter into an intergovernmental agreement with the Wisconsin Department of Revenue for the collection of certain City debt.  The Municipal Court intends to send certain categories of debt to the Wisconsin Department of Revenue on a trial basis for at least 6 months to determine the effectiveness of this arrangement.

Whereas, Negotiations with the Wisconsin Department of Revenue have been successfully completed; and
