Parks staff propose fee increases; shooting‑range users ask for more input and improvements
Nov 24, 2025
Parks and Recreation proposed modest, mostly $5–$15 fee increases and structural changes to reservations; shooting‑range users supported fee increases only if revenues are reinvested in drainage, bays and safety upgrades and asked for more public input before finalization.

Parks and Recreation staff presented a package of proposed fee changes Nov. 24 to standardize rental rates across county parks and partially offset rising maintenance costs. Proposed changes include modest increases (typically $5; up to $15 for larger pavilions), creation of two reservable ranges at the county shooting range with tiered fees, a special‑event permit for groups over 60 people, and authorization to add a historic pavilion rental at 5 Mile.
