1. That the risk is acceptable. If the inspection reveals substandard conditions, appropriate charges may be imposed but the report shall specify the improvements necessary for removal of each such charge.

3. That the risk is declined because it fails to meet reasonable underwriting standards as set forth in sub. (12) or (13) . Reasonable underwriting standards as set forth in sub. (12) or (13) shall not include neighborhood or area location or any environment hazard beyond the control of the property owner.

Where there is more than one cause for declination, all shall be listed and complied with before the property may be accepted for insurance purposes.

(a) Physical condition of property; however, the mere fact that a property does not satisfy all current building code specifications will not, of itself, suffice as a reason for declination.

(b) The property's present use such as extended vacancy or extended unoccupancy of the property for 60 consecutive days. Properties that are vacant or unoccupied for more than 60 days may be insured while rehabilitation or reconstruction work is actively in process meaning that the insured or owner should make monthly progress in order to complete the rehabilitation or reconstruction within a one year time frame.

(c) Other specific characteristics of ownership, condition, occupancy or maintenance, that violate the law and that result in substantial increased exposure to a loss. Any circumstance considered under this paragraph must relate to the peril insured against.

(d) Characteristics of ownership or maintenance of building including any 2 of the following conditions:

1. Failure to pay real estate taxes on the property after the taxes have been delinquent for one year or more.

2. Failure, within the insured's control, to furnish water for 30 consecutive days or more.

3. Failure, within the insured's control, to furnish heat for 30 consecutive days or more during the heating season.

(h) Previous loss history or matters of public record concerning the applicant or any person defined as an insured under the policy.

(g) Liability insurance shall not be provided where the applicant owns three or more horses or other riding animals, unless the applicant has in force a liability policy with limits of at least $100,000 per occurrence providing coverage for the ownership and use of these horses or these other riding animals.

(14)   Cancellation; nonrenewal and limitations; review of eligibility.

(a) The Plan shall not cancel or refuse to renew a policy issued by the Plan except for the following:

1. Facts as confirmed by inspection or investigation which would have been grounds for nonacceptance of the risk by the Plan had they been known to the Plan at the time of acceptance.

2. Changes in the physical condition of the property or other changed conditions as confirmed by inspection or investigation that make the risk uninsurable under sub. (12) or (13) .

3. Nonpayment of premiums.

4. At least 65% of the rental units in the building are unoccupied, and the insured has not received prior approval from the Plan of a rehabilitation program which necessitates a high degree of unoccupancy.

5. Unrepaired damage exists and the insured has stated that repairs will not be made or such time has elapsed as clearly indicates that the damage will not be repaired. The elapsed time under this subdivision is a length of time over 60 days where the damage remains unrepaired, unless there are known to be extenuating circumstances.

10. There is good cause to believe based on reliable information that the building will be burned for the purpose of collecting the insurance on the property. The removal of damaged salvageable items, such as normally permanent fixtures, from the building shall be considered under this item when the insured can give no reasonable explanation of such removal.

11. A named insured or loss payee or other person having a financial interest in the property being convicted of the crime of arson or a crime involving a purpose to defraud an insurance company. The fact that an appeal has been entered shall not negate the use of this subdivision.

12. The property has been subject to more than 2 losses, each loss amounting to at least $500 or 1% of the insurance in force, whichever is greater, in the immediately preceding 12-month period, or more than 3 such losses in the immediately preceding 24-month period, provided that the cause of such losses is due to the conditions which are the responsibility of the owner named insured or due to the actions of any person defined as an insured under the policy.

13. Theft frequency in which there have been more than 2 thefts, each loss amounting to at least $500 in a 12-month period.

15. On homeowners policies, excessive theft or liability losses.

16. On homeowner policies, excessive vandalism and malicious mischief losses. In the event that a given property has been subject to 2 vandalism and malicious mischief losses, each loss amounting to at least $500.00, in the immediately preceding 12-month period or 3 or more such losses in the immediately preceding 24-month period, the Plan may convert the homeowners policy to a dwelling policy without vandalism and malicious mischief coverage.

(e) At the completion of 36 months of coverage and prior to 48 months, each risk shall be reviewed for its eligibility for coverage in the voluntary market.

If the agent resubmits the risk to the Plan, it must be resubmitted by a new application and accompanied by a current rejection notice. The Plan shall reinspect the risk before coverage is provided.

(15)   Assessments.

(a) Participation and assessments by and upon each insurer in the Plan for losses and expenses in connection with Plan business shall be levied and assessed by the governing committee of the Plan on the basis of participation factors determined annually, giving effect to the proportion which such insurer's weighted premiums written bears to the aggregate weighted premiums written by all insurers in the Plan.

(b) If any member fails to pay an assessment within 30 days after it is due, the unpaid assessment may be collected from the remaining members.

(16)   Right to hearing.
