Everyone wants better parks services, they just get real ornery when asked to pay for it.

We already pay for it though. We have been for 80 years.

Edit: How about some volunteer cleanup crews? If that doesn't work, tax credit "paid" cleanup crews.

Is there a point hidden in there?

Yes parks cost money and always have. Sky is blue.

If we can push more of those costs on the people who actually use them? A+ policy.

This is a great idea.

Gov't should get out of the business of a LOT of things.

Bonus points for keeping government loons as far away from kids as possible

Boy if those old people think school is expensive, wait till they find out how much a triple bypass costs.

I know you need a visible license plate to park on a public street, how about a gravel lot in K-country? If they are just driving around scanning plates just toss your plate on your floor while hiking. Fortunately the Ghost , Waiparous and McLean areas are exempt.

I'd be more ok with this if it were a tempory solution to a temporary problem. In 3 years, the parks will have almost the same number of visitors as it did pre-covid, except this will never be rescinded.

Nothing will change after this fee except it now covers 10% of Parks budget.

If overcrowding is an issue (I was part of this guilty party during winter) then this will definitely address it to a degree.

You thought ahead! Shame on you! That's not how you get one of these 70 jobs they're hiring for.
Basically this will end up in large overall costs in future years solely based on the reduced visitors after pandemic.

What the government should do is contract out garbage collection for the time being and have a fee to carry those costs.

Let them eat bread!

Full price unsubsidized bread.

Too many people who don't pick up their shit after them, crazy how people can't respect such a beautiful environment. I'm not for more taxes but something had to be done.

[dirtsniffer]

I was way behind...

Anyways, user fees are great and I'm happy to pay to support parks.
