THE SPOKESMAN • WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 27, 2021 P5 State parks look to raise RV fees on out-of-staters Oregon Capital Bureau SALEM — The Oregon Parks and Recreation De- partment is requesting public comment on three proposed amendments to the Oregon Administrative Rules that gov- ern state parks, as directed by legislation passed during the 2021 session. The deadline for comments is 5 p.m. Friday, Nov. 10. One change prohibits in- dividuals convicted of a bias crime on public property or state waterways from enter- ing state park property for up to five years, as per Senate Bill 289. The proposed amendment establishes a process for issuing exclusion notices. The second change imple- ments Senate Bill 794, which increases fees for RV campsites by 25% for out-of-state resi- dents. Under the current sys- tem, out-of-state campers just pay the RV site rate. Oregon residents with RVs pay both the RV site rate plus an RV license plate fee, some of which goes to state park operations. Addi- tional revenue from this sur- charge will go to pay for day- to-day operations and repairs to state parks. With a system nearly 100 years old, those costs go up every year. The third amendment un- der consideration adds a re- quirement that members of the Outdoor Recreation Advi- sory Council be appointed by the governor, as per House Bill 2171. The council will advise the Office of Outdoor Recre- ation on outdoor policy and priorities. Comments may be submit- ted via: Public Hearing: A virtual public meeting set for 6 pm. Oct. 27. Registration is required at oregon.gov/OPRD/PRP/ Pages/PRP-rulemaking.aspx. Online: oregon.gov/OPRD/ PRP/Pages/PRP-rulemaking. aspx. Mail: Oregon Parks and Rec- reation Department, attn.: Ka- tie Gauthier, 725 Summer St NE, Suite C, Salem OR 97301. Email: OPRD.publiccom- ment@oregon.gov. A full copy of the proposed amendments is available on the Proposed OPRD Rules web page. After reviewing public com- ments, agency staff will present final amended rules for con- sideration by the Oregon Parks and Recreation Commission at its November business meeting.

Chip is an approxi- mately one-year-old hound mix. He’s a great me- dium size dog but he has a big personality. He’s a super friendly & goofy guy but he’s pretty needy. Be- cause of this, he may have problems being left alone or when people are not paying attention to him. He’s got impressive vocals so we don’t recommend apart- ment life for Chip. He’s done well with other dogs and may enjoy hanging with others at home. derbies and maturities.; 7 a.m.-5 p.m.; Deschutes County Fair & Expo Center, 3800 SW Airport Way, Redmond; expo. deschutes.org or 541-548-2711.
