We want to inform you about two recently filed legislative bills (HB 86 and HB 87) that will fundamentally alter BREC's operations and governance. These proposals would restructure BREC's leadership and transfer control of its accredited, national Gold Medal-winning park system. These changes are being considered without voter input. To stay informed, visit this link for a factual analysis of these bills' potential impacts and how your voice can be heard.
