Dave Heineman on Environment

Republican NE Governor

Vetoes 25% State Park Fee Increase

Raising fees during these economic times is not the appropriate way to better state parks; government should be analyzing how to reduce expenses. Compounding these uncertain economic conditions are increasing energy costs, health insurance premiums, and fuel prices. With increasing fuel prices, Nebraskans are going to stay closer to home. Increasing park entry fees will discourage Nebraskans from enjoying the outdoors and visiting Nebraska's attractions. Source: 2011 Nebraska Gubernatorial press release TK , May 12, 2011
