Wis. Admin. Code § Trans 1.02 – County proportionate share; allocation method.

(1) In accordance with the statutory direction in s. 85.21 (2) (b), Stats., the department shall determine the amount of each county’s proportionate share of aid appropriated in each year for the operation of this program. The amount of aid available for allocation in any calendar year shall be the amount appropriated for the fiscal year in which that calendar year begins.
(2)
1. (a) The department shall base its determination of county proportionate shares on the most recent relevant census and statistical data and projections from the U.S. department of commerce, bureau of the census and the Wisconsin department of administration.
2. (b) For the purposes of determining a county’s proportionate share, the department shall include all seniors and individuals with disabilities who reside within that county.
3. (c) Individuals with disabilities who are age 65 or older shall be counted only once for aid allocation purposes.
(3) Subject to adjustments that ensure that each county receives not less than 0.5% of the total annual appropriation for the program, the amount of aids allocated to each county shall equal the total amount available for allocation for the calendar year multiplied by the ratio of the number of seniors and individuals with disabilities in the county to the total number of seniors and individuals with disabilities in Wisconsin.
Note: The final aids allocation figures for each county and the data and statistics used in making the aid allocations are available for inspection at the department upon request.
