What is going to stop them this time? The commission is doing whatever they want. The public comments are just the dog and pony show. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It seems like the commission heard the public loud and clear. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then they feel like the little guy has a chance 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trphyhntr Report post Posted March 19 When the mule deer tags raised $760k Or whatever it was last year, and say for arguments sake it was 400k the year before and 500k the year before. What did they do with all that money, Do they save it year to year or spend it all every year? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TOBY Report post Posted March 19 Yet they ask for volunteers to haul water in the summer to the trick tanks? Yeah that money is being spent wisely 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sometimes the projects don’t get done in the year planned, in which case the money rolls to the next year. Sometimes the projects take several years to complete so the money sits until the project is finalized. Generally speaking all the money has a dedicated project and will get spent. Sometimes projects get cancelled and that money that was allocated will be used for another project. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would like to see some transparency on where/how etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
