Fees proposal sparks split among DuPont Forest supporters
The Friends of DuPont Forest debate a proposed fee schedule to fund infrastructure at Hooker Falls and other sites. Guidry cites a $465,000 facility cost with breakdowns for plans, building, wastewater, and paving, while critics warn fees could deter visitors and hurt fundraising. Some back PARTF funding or a one time state appropriation to bridge gaps, as the Donut Hole acreage nears state ownership and Lake DERA recreation area potential expands.
