State may nix park entrance fees
From the Traverse City Record-Eagle:
Proposed new legislation announced Thursday calls for the elimination of entrance fees for all state parks, and drivers instead would be asked to foot the bill through an additional $10 when they renew their vehicles each year.
The legislation would allow staff to better use their time, cut down on lines and benefit drivers who want a view of Grand Traverse Bay, said Tim Schreiner, a unit supervisor at Traverse City State Park.
“Even if they never drive in there, I see it as a benefit,” Schreiner said. “Their natural resources are being preserved.”
