While the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources is taking just a small hit in Gov. Jim Doyle's proposed 2009-11 state budget, despite a looming $5.7 billion state deficit, the cuts that do exist, along with shifts in programming priorities, reflect an administration and agency that desire to focus less on customer service and more on law enforcement and environmental regulation.
The budget proposes $584.4 million for the agency in 2009-10 and $579.2 million for 2010-11 - a reduction of only $2.2 million from the 2007-09 biennial budget."
