Governor Reynolds Sees Detail in 32 Million Conservation Budget
Governor John W. Reynolds studied the Conservation Department plan totaling 32 million dollars during a two day tour. He praised the budget's detail noting costs such as 17 dollars per muskellunge pound and 18 cents per pheasant egg. The two year budget includes 744000 from the outdoor recreation act for state parks and excludes 7 million from the Recreation Committee for land and development projects. The governor emphasized that the department's budget is not under his direct control and largely funded by licenses and fees. He also opposed a request for an assistant legal counsel, arguing legal work should go through the attorney general.
