Wisconsin Alcohol Policy Project

Municipal Policies

Decision makers talking

Local elected officials have an important responsibility with the alcohol environment in their communities. However, local officials are not the only players on alcohol policies; state law can also change what happens at the local level and some of these changes can be challenging to decipher. The Wisconsin Alcohol Policy Project regularly provides resources regarding many different laws and policies, whether new or changed state law, or ordinances enacted by communities that are working well and could be models for other communities. Check back here often, as we plan to update frequently to provide you with summaries of state law changes as well as items that may be of interest when considering improving the local alcohol environment.
