fund money to the state Parks and Recreation Department officials said Friday think that is the type of thing we want to be looking at" Department Director Pete Dangermond Jr fold the eight park commissioners present at a 1 day-long meeting But he the closures could be a last-resort measure to compensate for the fund cut of about $3 million from the -estimated $73 million -budget for the fiscal year that starts 'July 1 1982 The' last-ditch plan he said would involve closing 40 small parks and three of the seven reservoirs Dangermond refused to name them but comments from other department -personnel indicated that reservoirs near Turlock Riverside and Fresno might be targeted Deputy Directa Neil Johannsen said the parks being considered are all small ones with few visitors and no permanent staff would venture a guess that file 40 units probably received for less than 1 percent of total at all parks he said In separate actions the Commissioners voted against a plan that would have ended the sale of all alcoholic beverages except wine and beer on park property They adopted a proposal to add minor restrictions to granting alcoholic beverage licenses to facilities on park property Dangermond said that if the state Finance Department agrees an in-crease in revenues from park fees and concessions could be used fo offset the 5 percent general fund cut If that foifo file parks department would be faced with reducing its park development program sharply cutting park services or finally the park closures be said only a possibility at this Johannsen said could have a maja reduction in services and keep the parks open but you hit a point where you wonder if really worth '-v Johannsen said he believes that if the parks were to dose in July it would be the first time in state history such action would have been taken to offset economic woes Already this year the department has slashed its $73 million operating budget by $15 million because of the financial problems Johannsen said the parka hope to -raise $26 million in revenues from fees and concessions next year SAN FRANCISCO (AP) Two women vanished but their male companions survived after their
