The Fresno County Board of Supervisors conducted a first hearing Nov. 4 on updates to county park fees and recreation ordinances. The proposals discussed include a provision to grant veterans and active-duty service members year-round free vehicle entry to county parks, described in the meeting as recognizing service and promoting wellness and access to outdoor spaces across Fresno County.

County staff presented the proposed ordinance changes during the hearing. The transcript records that this was a first hearing; it does not record final adoption of ordinance language, a roll-call vote, or an effective date.

Because the item was a first hearing, any changes to fees or implementation details would require additional hearings, formal ordinance adoption and any administrative steps identified by county staff.
