The proposal I have seen increases the total parking. The challenge is Goodhue is looking to expand/reconfigure their operation which is embraced by some, opposed by others. Adding/reconfiguring parking is tied to the expansion plans, which currently seem to be on a holding pattern as opposing viewpoints are being heard and debated.
The town is also looking at adopting some type of permit/resident parking spaces and passes for some of the parking at Sheps and Cattle Landing, but again, details are far from worked out and settled upon as different constituent groups have strong, often opposing, ideas.
Something will most likely happen, but time will tell what it is.
I appreciate any insights people have as I rely on Sheps to access island property.
