David Gomberg, aims to create a fund for removing abandoned RVs. The fee hikes are projected to generate an additional $5.9 million for counties and $7.2 million for the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department every two years, while the new disposal fee would raise about $9 million biennially to remove an estimated 900 RVs per year.
