Congressman James Comer says no decision has been made on a possible day use fee at Kendall Recreation Area below Wolf Creek Dam.
Comer and key members of his staff held a conference call Monday with U.S. Army Corps of Engineers officials about the proposal, which has drawn considerable concern from local residents.
In an exclusive interview with WJRS NEWS, we asked Comer about that conversation:
Comer says Corps officials assured him a decision would not be made before March of next year.
He has strongly opposed the possible fee, raising concerns about public access to the recreation area and the impact on Big Daddy’s Snack Shack, a local business located there.
Again, the number to call to express your opinion on a possible user fee at Kendall Recreation Area is 606-679-6337.
Comer says he left no doubt with Corps officials about how upset he and the community are over the proposal.
