SB5390 raise discover pass fee
Chris57:
You can check out a Discover pass from Sno Isle library for two weeks for free and if there isn't a hold they auto renew. My wife works for the library so it's real easy for me.

My daughter got a ticket at point no point for no disco pass and she was just walking the beach
They do check

I think Sitka is referring to the coast, not just any beach. The coast (Beach) is officially known as the Seashore Conservation Area and is the only state land where a Discover Pass is not needed.

Was just informed the other day from our jeep club and PNW4WDA to contact our "Reps". Vote no or vote to defer. IF this gets passed, expect to lose access to a lot of areas, not only 4x4's but all groups who enjoy public lands.
I can't seem to copy and paste the DNR's page that explain what will happen, mainly the re-allocating of funds is what's going to happen. Then user groups will lose their portion of funding. The DNR would actually want it deferred so they can get the user groups input, which hasn't really taken place.

Sent my reps my feedback. If the bill passes I'll not buy another Discover Pass.
