Have your say about potential fee increases at one of Southern Arizona’s most stunning locations.
Saguaro National Park officials are proposing an increase in entrance fees and annual pass costs — and they’re interested in hearing what the public has to say about the proposal.
Entrance fees increase from $15 to $20 for a weekly vehicle pass. Weekly fees per person would go up from $5 to $10, and weekly fees for motorcycles would be raised from $10 to $15. The cost of an annual pass, which is now $35, would become $40.
“If approved, this increase would go into effect on May 1, 2018, and would bring the park into alignment with the entry costs for other similar parks,” officials said a news release from Saguaro National Park.
Comments will be accepted from Jan. 9 to Feb. 9 through the mail to Superintendent, Saguaro National Park 3693 S. Old Spanish Trail, Tucson, AZ 85730. You can also leave your opinions online at parkplanning.nps.gov/saguarofeeincrease
