crbanshee Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 (edited) im just courious to find out what everyone thinks of having to pay the green or now red sticker fees and then having to pay another fee now for camping at glamis, gordens well and buttercup?? is it just me or is this realy lame that we get to pay 2 times now to go ride the dunes...one fee for the sticker and now a second fee to ride the dunes??? Edited August 23, 2004 by crbanshee Quote
Stuff Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 I live in NY and have never been to the dunes and can understand a fee to camp and go riding....but another fee on top of that sounds like some way of soaking the taxpayers for more money for some agency that really does not need it. Then again, I have never been out there I'm still erked(sp?) at how NY state seems to raise vehicle registration fees as time progresses and the NY politicians still can't get a damn budget passed on time...... Sorry for my little rant Quote

DUNEDEMON Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 (edited) The green / red sticker fees are simply the registration / license fees for off highway vehicles, they do not grant acess to riding areas. The camping fees at Glamis are not directly related to the green / red sticker fees. Piont is, they are two different fees. Furthermore, if you do not like the way your fees money's are being utilized you should think about joining an organization like The American Sand Association http://www.asasand.com Edited August 23, 2004 by DUNEDEMON Quote
Stuff Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 P.S. Stuff we are leaving NY going to glamis on Nov 23 if your down. I'm down with it!!!!!!!! but I'm in my buddy's wedding Thanks for the invite and I really want to go on one of your riding events! Quote
JTQuad Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 Cool, plan on pres. day week 2005 Peace - JT Quote
crbanshee Posted August 23, 2004 Author Report Posted August 23, 2004 thats my point the green/ red sticker is registration,,but now the $25 park use fee is in effect and the fact is they are both suposed to pay for the same thing..desert conservation and maintnance..it was said at the very beginning of the park use fees that these moneys would provide upgrades to the camping reas such as public restrooms ond other services in that area..well in the few years that these fees have been collected i have not seen one single thing done to improve the camping areas..how ever i have noticed that the rangers that patroll the areas all have brand new shiny trucks and bikes???? i have been a gordens well local all my life..my first trip out was at the ripe old age of 6 months old, and now that im pushin 30 the only thing i have noticed different is the amount of trash people are leaving behind and the nice new trucks driven by the ranger..where are our fees being used???? and why are we being charged for park use and registration if the money is all suposed to be for the same thing and nothing has been done??

DUNEDEMON Posted August 23, 2004 Report Posted August 23, 2004 I'll say it again..... if you do not like the way your fees money's are being utilized you should think about joining an organization like The American Sand Association http://www.asasand.com Quote
sheeweet Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 Off topic but regarding red or green stickers. I recieved my new reg sticker for my Shee and it is a green sticker. I was expecting it to be red. Did the state screw it up? I'm from, unfortunately, California. But I put it on and went to Pismo last week, no problem there. Had an awesome three days too. Quote
Yamahammer Posted August 24, 2004 Report Posted August 24, 2004 I just renewed my reg also and i had a red but this year they gave me a green i am not complaining or asking Quote
crbanshee Posted August 24, 2004 Author Report Posted August 24, 2004 what year is your banshee??? some of the older ones still get green..i just bought a 2004 in feb...and got red..and im in california..but the dmv has messed up and sent me a red sticker for my dune buggy once too Quote
