User fees
From Freepedia
People pay for the use of many public services and facilities. At the federal level, there is a charge for walking to the top of the Statue of Liberty, to drive into many nationals parks, and to use particular services of the Library of Congress. States may charge tolls for driving on highways or impose a fee on those who camp in state parks. Communities usually have entrance fees for public swimming pools and meters for parking on local streets. While user fees represent a small share of federal and state revenue, they make-up 20 percent of revenues raised in local jurisdictions.
