I get it, our parks are definitely in need of repair. If this amendment had come up 4 years ago when the economy was booming, I might have considered it. But I just can't see how spending $85 mil right now with the current state of the economy is fiscally responsible.
I get where you're coming from here, but, unless we're anticipating the state legislature cutting the state parks budget in the next few years, I'm not sure what the downside is.
I doubt this has a chance of passing though. I'm betting most people who don't research at all will see "new debt" and vote no.

Unless I'm just a simpleton (quite possibly), this will be issued through the sale of bonds. So it's not like it's just "spending" $85 mil. I voted "yes".

I researched it and saw "new debt" and voted no.
How about we charge a fee to those who use the park rather than dump a new debt on the entire state? most of the state will never set foot in the park or reap any economic benefit from it.
