Wisconsin municipalities have until December 31, 2024 to obligate these funds, and December 31, 2026 to complete projects. Every Wisconsin municipality was allocated funds. Request funding now to ensure your municipality has the opportunity to provide relief and invest in your community!

Common Questions

DOR has received several questions regarding the appropriate value to report in Section B, Line 1 on Form SL-330: Coronavirus Local Recovery Funds Request.

Based on the U.S. Treasury Department's frequently asked questions – the most recent budget is a municipality's most recent annual total operating budget, including its general fund and other funds, as of January 27, 2020. If a fund is within your operating budget, it should be included. This may include general fund, debt service, capital project fund, special revenue funds, enterprise funds, etc.

We will continue to send information to help assist local governments through this process.
