The Dane County Park Commission will hold a public hearing regarding proposed 2017 Park fee increases on September 14, 2016 at 6:00pm at the Lussier Family Heritage Center, 3101 Lake Farm Rd. Madison, WI 53711.

The Dane County Park Commission sets the fee structure for services provided in the County Parks.  Each year fees are evaluated and adjusted in order to offset operational and maintenance costs associated with the various park activities.  Last year the Park Commission elected not to raise permit fees. This year modest increases in a few service areas have been proposed including, dog parks, lake access fees, shelter reservations and special event permits.

A complete list of the current and proposed 2017 Park fees are available by visiting:
