Why why why are we stuck with only the "California Parks" Foundation to coordinate this fight? They're a smarmy group. They promote sleazy junk science, hatred of minorities and fat people, and jump on any low class band wagon that will get them a grant from leftist extremists. State Parks need LEGITIMATE support that respects ALL Californians (even if they're the "wrong" color or size), not one that's willing to sell out just to get those big hollywood checks.
A public hearing will be held next week at the state capitol in Sacramento on Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's proposal to close more than 200 state parks, including several in the Bay Area.
The proposal, part of Schwarzenegger's May revision for the 2009-2010 budget announced this week, would eliminate all $143.4 million of the state's general fund contributions to the state park system.
The parks would lose $70 million in the 2009-2010 budget, and the remaining $73.4 million in the 2010-2011 budget, according to the proposal.
Lawmakers will discuss and take public comments about the proposed cuts in a conference committee on the budget next Tuesday in Sacramento.
The loss in funding would cause the closure of up to 223 state parks, or about 80 percent of all state parks in California, according to California State Parks spokesman Roy Stearns.
