SAN ANTONIO — New Braunfels City Council tentatively approved Monday fees for both residents and nonresidents to enter riverside parks. The council backed a $5-per-person fee for nonresidents visiting Prince Solms Park and Hinmann Island Park on the Comal River in January and added a $2-per-person fee for residents Monday.

The fees would only be enforced on weekends and holidays from Memorial Day to Labor Day. The measure passed on a 5-1 vote and the City Council will cast the final vote on Feb. 24.
