Several board members agreed charging admission during special events might also be necessary to help recover lost revenue.

"I appreciate the sentiment you guys are putting out keeping the parks open. I think it's very important. I here to say we need to keep it open with county employees. Laying off more employees hurts the economy," said Fresno County resident Doug O'Deena.
Supervisors said they will continue to look for ways to make the parks cost efficient.
