Resources
Provide Funding for State Parks

The May Revision proposes $13.3 million in funding for the Department of Parks and Recreation. The Governor's Budget proposed a $13.3 million General Fund reduction, which would have resulted in closing 48 state parks and reducing seasonal lifeguards at state beaches by a minimum of 50 percent. This proposal will provide $11.8 million General Fund and $1.5 million from increased state park fees to keep parks open. The fee increases will range from $1 to $2 at selected state parks where the effect on attendance would be minimal.
