We pay License fees to fish. A 'water usage' fee, in our Boat Tax. Other F&G and Resource income comes from the Taxpayers and a certain amount of other 'bond' sales.
Why the Board comes up with such a Hi usage fee for something we've already paid for is confusing. I'd like to have been a fly on the wall in the room that decision was made. How did they justify it? There must be some logic there we don't know about.

If the cost of the Ramp was the issue, those $45,000 Ramps have been paid off long ago. Now the Ramp usage fees are supporting something else and the Sign at the top of the Ramp ought to label that 'something else' and it's cost.

It reminds me of the Lake Washington floating bridge crossing fee.
That was paid for by throwing coins in a container and Cigarette tax fees. It was paid for, and the Fees continued, for almost 20 years before somebody complained and the whole thing was dropped, the bridge became free. Lot's of good things happend then as the Traffic stoppages were removed.

Certainly our government needs more tax money. But we should be the 'adult supervisor' for the amounts of money spent, and what it's spent on.
