After concern new Alaska ferry may be too big, it gets bigger
JUNEAU -- Following complaints that the ferry being built to replace the aged Tustumena would be too big for Kodiak's cramped harbor, the vessel has been redesigned. But the new plan from the [Alaska] Department of Transportation and Public Facilities has the vessel lengthened by 5 feet.

Yeah, it'll fit at that little shared pier, just fine.
Sigh ...

If you would just pay your fair share of taxes they could build a larger pier with more full time employees with lifetime benefits and pensions to work there ya know?
Geez, Preppy, don't give 'em any more ideas, please?

PH, that hasn't always been my experience. Just sayin' ...
Don't often find this at a government website:
"All comments received will be reviewed and incorporated into the final design to the extent feasible."
Agreed, Cathy. But remember, anything is easy to say ...
You 'know' they'll have to expand the pier now... sigh
I know, NFO ... and that will lead to a "realization" that the neighboring piers are too crowded also, which will lead to a call for a complete redesign of the harbor.
It never, ever ends.
