(WRN) -Governor Tony Evers is proposing legislation to help local governments with spring flooding.The Democratic governor's announcement Tuesday comes as communities begin planning and preparation for spring flooding. Evers proposed a package of bills that would cover some of the costs to repair highways and bridges, assist local governments in collecting storm water and groundwater, and create an income tax deduction for flood insurance premiums.
All well and good, but the state Assembly has adjourned, and the Senate is expected on the floor just once more, later this month.
