Staff Analysis of the Legislation

Under this bill, whenever the Department of Natural Resources is considering closing or reducing (by 50 percent or more) the hours of operation of a state park or recreational area, they are required to provide at least 90 days notice to the city or county in which the park or recreational area is located.  The idea being that, with due notice, the local government would have ample time to decide whether it wanted to take over the control, operation and/or management responsibilities.
