To keep members informed, we have shared a copy of BHA's October 12 letter to the NC Utilities Commission on 2027 Deep Point parking rates. The letter is a consumer statement of position, which is the Commission's version of a public comment. It is not a lawsuit or a complaint, and BHA has no interest in reopening litigation. After hearing from members, the Board reviewed and approved the letter. It asks how parking rates are reviewed and how Islanders can be heard.

Parking and the ferry are the Island's lifeline. BHA supports the Transportation Authority's progress toward the potential purchase of the ferry system. We'll keep working as a constructive partner and keep you informed along the way. To view the full explanation (with a link to the letter) and an update from the Bald Head Island Transportation Authority, view this week's Compass newsletter here:
