Of course, this is through the draws and tags allocated as such. I saw a chart one year visually showing the impact and it was amazing what nonresidents contribute overall.

Only the split of where it comes from. I also feel that when residents get their way, and achieve price increases for non-residents, this only compounds the scenario. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
