Bill Summary
State parks, early reservation and reduced rate permitted and required for state residents
AI Summary
This bill creates a new law that provides preferential treatment for Alabama state residents at state parks by establishing two key provisions: First, residents will be allowed to reserve campsites and cabins (including tent, RV, and equestrian camping sites) up to one month earlier than nonresidents, with the limitation that a resident and their household can only hold one advance reservation at a time. Second, residents will receive a 10 percent discount on campsite and cabin reservation rates compared to nonresidents. To verify residency and ensure compliance with these provisions, residents may be required to present a valid driver's license, nondriver identification card, or other photo identification. The bill is set to take effect on October 1, 2025, and aims to provide Alabama residents with enhanced access and more affordable options for enjoying state park camping facilities.
