Title: Discover Pass numbers from commission meeting....
Post by: jager on August 25, 2011, 02:09:40 AM
Got some numbers from the 8/5 televised commission meeting...

They claim 30% of households will be purchasing these passes....for a total of $70 million.
They were pretty much tripping over each other patting each other on the back.
....disgusting!

I just talked to a WDFW local Wildlife Area manager and he said the numbers looked like they were coming in low (at no surprise to the WDFW or to us)

I think its either 84 or 86% of the monies going to Parks and Recreation, the remainder split equaly between WDFW and DNR......so Im sure P&R will only use the 56 million dollars for necessary projects, right??????  I sure wish they had to be completely accountable and transparent with the use of this money........I can just immagine the wheels are turning at breakneck speed as to how they can spend this money, and on what special projects they can now start.  More fancy restrooms at the bird watching sites...while hunters and fishermen face the same over overfull sanicans, being forced to relieve themselves in the first patch of brush they can find.  Just another shamefull money grab from the idiots in Olympia.
