In March, Governor Evers announced​ a new investment of more than $50 million to help make Wisconsin communities safer, including nearly $19 million to be allocated to every local and tribal LEA across the state. The allocation for each LEA is based on the size of the population served, with an add-on for communities where violent crime exceeds the state average.​

How it Works: During a quarterly Reporting Period, an LEA may draw down its Allocation and receive allocated funds by reporting eligible expenditures for reimbursement through the Program’s online reporting system.​ DOA will process these submissions and reimburse each LEA’s reported eligible expenditures from the remaining balance of its Allocation. The first Reporting Period is expected to occur during a two-week period in September 2022; they will occur on a quarterly basis thereafter until the completion of the Program.

OCTAGON: Exclusively for stop signs. HORIZONTAL RECTANGLE: Generally for guide signs. TRIANGLE: Exclusively for yield signs. PENNANT: Advance warning of no passing zones.

Barricades, vertical panels, drums, and cones are the most commonly used devices to alert drivers of unusual or potentially dangerous conditions in highway and street work zones. These devices are used to guide the drivers safely through the work area, and at night, they may be equipped with warning lights. When a Road Closed sign is displayed, do not drive on this road. Look for a detour or another route.

A green arrow, pointing right or left, means you may make a turn in the direction of the arrow. If the red light is burning at the same time, you must be in the proper lane for such a turn, and you must yield the right-of-way to vehicles and pedestrians within the intersection.

A flashing red light means the same thing as a stop sign. It is used at dangerous intersections. A flashing yellow light means you may move forward with caution. It is used at or just before dangerous intersections, or to alert you to a warning sign such as a school crossing or sharp curve.

SLOW MOVING VEHICLE Vehicles going less than 25 miles per hour (such as farm equipment) must display this sign on the rear when using public highways.

This sign is used on multiple lane highways to advise slower driving traffic to stay in the right hand lane; and also to do so when approached from behind by other traffic even if you are doing the speed limit.

Lines, symbols and words are often painted on a roadway to help direct drivers and control traffic flow. You must know what the different lines and colors mean and obey them as you would traffic signs or signals.

The advance warning sign is usually the first sign you see when approaching a highway-rail intersection. The advance warning sign advises you to slow down, look, and listen for a train, and be prepared to stop if a train is approaching.

Always approach highway-railroad crossings at a reasonable speed — and be prepared to stop if you have to. Be especially alert when you are following buses or trucks which may have to stop at highway-railroad crossings even if any gates are up and the warning lights are not flashing.

Come to a complete stop at the marked stop line or before moving into the crosswalk or intersection. After stopping, you may turn right on red at most intersections if the way is clear. Some intersections display a "NO TURN ON RED" sign, which you must obey. Left turns on red from a one-way street into a one-way street are also allowed.

GREEN GUIDE SIGNS Green and white signs give information about directions and distances. Guide signs on expressways show you which lanes to use to get where you want to go. Routes that run generally East-West have even numbers and those running North-South have odd numbers.

There are eight shapes and eight colors of traffic signs. Each shape and each color has an exact meaning, so you must acquaint yourself with all of them.

Each new hire who receives recruitment incentives that are reimbursed through this Program must provide the LEA with a written statement affirming that the new hire intends to complete at least three years’ continuous employment with the LEA. The LEA is responsible for collecting and maintaining those statements; it does not need to provide copies of those statements when making reimbursement requests unless specifically requested by DOA.

Procurement limitations: All expenditures submitted for reimbursement through this Program must comply with Grantee’s local procurement procedures and must avoid conflicts of interest, acquisition of unnecessary or duplicative items, excessive costs, or other waste.​​​​

You must never drive in a lane under a red X. A yellow X means that your lane signal is going to change to red. Prepare to leave the lane safely. You may drive in lanes beneath the green arrow, but you must also obey all other signs and signals.

White and yellow lines are used along pavement edges and between lanes to keep vehicles in line. These lines may be solid or broken (long dashes), single or double.

There are several signs, signals and pavement markings that indicate highway railroad crossings. When you see one of them, slow down and be ready to stop.

Pavement markings, consisting of an RXR followed by a stop line closer to the tracks, may be painted on the paved approach to a crossing. Any person walking or driving a vehicle must stop within 50 feet but not less than 15 feet of the crossing. Stay behind the stop line while waiting for a train to pass.

Slow down and give vehicles crossing your path the right-of-way. If the way is clear, you may move forward slowly without stopping. Yield signs are usually placed where auxiliary roads lead into major roads.

Traffic signals are placed at intersections to keep traffic moving and avoid accidents. Drivers, pedestrians, and bicycle riders must obey these signals except when an officer is directing traffic. Stop on the stop line if your car is nearest the signal. Some signals change only when a car is at the stop line. If traffic signals are out of order, stop as you would for a four-way stop sign.

If there is no marked stop line, stop before entering the crosswalk on the near side of the intersection. If there is no crosswalk, stop at a point nearest the intersecting roadway where you have a clear view of approaching traffic on the intersecting roadway before entering the intersection.

The first reporting period ends on September 30, 2022.  There will be additional reporting periods in December 2022, March 2023, and July 2023.  An eligible expenditure may be submitted for reimbursement during any reporting period, so long as it meets the eligibility requirements and has not already been reimbursed from DOA or another source.  ​

Third, the eligibility window for expenditures has been expanded until the end of the calendar year 2023. DOA will waive the current program requirement that eligible expenditures must be incurred no later than June 30, 2023, provided such expenditures are incurred no later than December 31, 2023.

ANIMAL CROSSING. The animal pictured on the sign is common in this area: watch for this species crossing the road particularly during twilight and nighttime hours.

Second, the categories of eligible expenditures for the program have been expanded to include reimbursement for the costs of implementing community-based gun buyback programs. DOA will waive the current program limitations on eligible expenditures to the extent that grantees seek reimbursement associated with implementing such programs.  In the expense reporter, grantees may include the costs of community-based gun buyback programs in expense category 9 (“Community policing initiatives”).

Many crossings have gates with flashing red lights and bells. Stop when the lights begin to flash, and before the gate lowers across your side of the road. Do not move forward until the gates are raised and the lights stop flashing as there may be a train approaching on an adjacent track.

The Program​ will reimburse costs associated with designing and implementing initiatives to prevent and investigate incidents of carjacking and vehicle theft, including training, equipment and technology (excluding weapons), temporary contract personnel, or other expenses associated with such initiatives.

Permitted Uses of Funds: The Program is intended to provide LEAs with additional resources to help offset certain costs associated with hiring, training, testing, and equipping law-enforcement officers, as well as updating certain technology and policies and implementing new crime-reduction initiatives. The following expenditures are eligible for reimbursement under the Program, subject to the limitations set forth in the MOU, this Program Schedule, and applicable state and federal law:

Two-way roadway with a center lane for left turns in either direction of travel. The specially marked center turn lane is intended for slowing down and for sheltering of turning vehicles and may not be used for passing.

Yellow lane lines separate lanes of traffic moving in opposite directions. Single yellow lines may also mark the left edge of the pavement on divided highways and one-way streets.

A solid white line marks the edge of the pavement on most roads. Stop lines, crosswalks and parking spaces are also marked by white lines. Symbols such as arrows are in white also. A single yellow line marks the left edge of all divided or one-way roadways. Curbs are often marked yellow in no-parking zones near fire hydrants or intersections.

Each LEA can use its allocated funds to reimburse eligible expenditures incurred between March 15, 2022 and June 30, 2023. The Department of Administration (DOA) currently anticipates that the first round of reimbursement payments will be made in September 2022. In the coming weeks, the DOA will provide details on the types of expenditures that are eligible for reimbursement through the program, how an LEA reports them to the DOA, and other terms and conditions.  We will send an​ email notice to you once those details are finalized.​

Program Duration: An LEA may use its Allocation to reimburse eligible expenditures incurred between March 15, 2022 and December 31, 2023.  Expenditures incurred outside that time window are not eligible for reimbursement under this Program.  For purposes of this Program, an expenditure is not “incurred” until the LEA or its affiliated Tribal or local government has paid it.

A diamond-shaped marking shows that a lane is reserved for certain purposes or certain vehicles. The lanes are usually reserved for buses or car-pool vehicles during rush hour traffic. Other diamond signs are used to designate bicycle lanes.

Each LEA is responsible for conducting appropriate background checks on employment candidates. New hires with a record of misconduct are not eligible to receive recruitment incentives that are reimbursed through this Program.

The Program will reimburse the costs of retaining temporary contract personnel to assist with processing evidence, reducing backlogs, or other tasks that help LEAs conduct criminal investigations. When reporting these expenditures in the online reporting system, the LEA must identify the contractor used and the nature of the services performed.

Come to a complete stop at the marked stop line or before moving into the crosswalk or intersection. After stopping, you may turn right on red arrow at most intersections if the way is clear. Some intersections display a "NO TURN ON RED" sign, which you must obey. Left turns on red arrow from a one-way street into a one-way street are also allowed.

The lane marking arrow, in the center lane in the diagram below, indicates that traffic in this lane can be reversed in accordance with local traffic controls due to "rush hour" traffic or other special traffic conditions.

At many highway-rail crossings, the crossbuck has flashing red lights and bells. When the lights begin to flash, stop! A train is approaching. DO NOT STOP ON THE TRACKS OR WITHIN SIX FEET OF EITHER RAIL. Do not move forward until you can do so safely. If there is more than one track, make sure all tracks are clear before crossing. In heavy traffic make sure there is room for your vehicle on the other side before starting to cross.

At the intersection ahead traffic in left lane must turn left and traffic in adjoining lane may turn left or continue straight ahead.

Award Amount: Each tribal and local law enforcement agency in the State of Wisconsin (referred to herein as “LEAs” or “Grantees”) has been allocated a certain sum (its “Allocation”) based on the size of the population it serves, with an add-on for LEAs serving communities where violent crime exceeds the state average. The Allocation for each LEA can be viewed here​ and incorporated by reference herein.
