Finicum said the occupied visitors center, which the militants have renamed the Harney County Resource Center, was a symbolic victory and inspiration to other anti-government extremists.

“We have occupied their fort, and we’re not giving it back, it goes to Harney County,” said Finicum, who has ignored local pleas to leave the area. “It does not go back to the federal government.”

I’m guessing that Harney County officials would not be overly pleased with that arrangements since it would mean losing the PILT income from the federal government, and that PILT comprises a very significant percentage of the county’s budget revenues.
