Proposition designates money for parks

Proposition five on the November ballot would set aside money for state parks. 

In 1993, State Lawmakers set aside sales taxes on sporting goods to go to state parks, but that’s not always where it’s gone says Jennifer Sarver with the Texas Coalition for State Parks. 

She says many of our state parks were built in the 1930s and are in desperate need of repair. She says some of this money will help neighborhood parks too.
