Entry Fees (Comment)

From Todd, September 15, 2008:

Start charging a entry fee to access these parks. The selling pitch that this will only cost the taxpayer $5 or whatever more per month may seem trivial but it all adds up. Our property taxes have increased over $400/year since moving into our home in 2002. If individuals want to utilize these parks, they should pay the nominal entry fee or a yearly pass just like what is needed to gain entry to a state park or a national park. I live in Denver. We did visit Lookout Mountain on a regular basis but with the increase in fuel prices, we have cut back on these type of excursions and visit the local city parks.
