A state employee jumped the gun last week when she told the Haines Borough a solution had been reached in the ongoing issue of residents parallel parking in the state’s right-of-way toward the end of Mud Bay Road.
Manager Bill Seward canceled a July 29 town hall meeting on the subject when Department of Transportation right-of-way agent Joanne Schmidt told Seward she had developed a “manageable solution” after exchanging calls and emails with across-the-bay residents.
