Who knows? The fact of the matter is, this is going to cost you a lot of money. If they impose a tax on parking, that's a cost that you, the consumer, is going to have to eat. I find it unlikely that free parking with early season pass purchases will be an option in the future if this passes.
Kings Island isn't making a big deal out of this because of greed. It is seriously going to hurt the business. If you listened to the conference call a week ago, chain-wide group sales are down. Now an admissions tax on an individual ticket may be $1 or so, but think of the group rates -- if someone wants to purchase, say 4,000 tickets that's an additional $4,000. It's going to be a deal breaker for a lot of companies.
Cedar Fair will have to make up for this revenue somehow. How? By eliminating perks like free parking, cutting back operating hours, limiting live shows and entertainment, raising food and merch prices and cutting back on future expansions.
This WILL affect your future experiences at Kings Island in a very negative way.
