Ok, this is awkward

Massport raised its parking fees by $1 last month after its Board of Directors gave their Executive Director, by unanimous vote and without discussion, the power to adjust rates.

New Transportation Secretary Aloisi is criticizing the increase, in part because their was no public input to the process.

I suspect that it also makes the $2 fee that the state wanted to place on Logan parkers more difficult to sell politically.

And now the awkward part — the same Transportation Secretary Aloisi (who is criticizing the increase) was a member of the Massport board that voted unanimously and without discussion to give the Executive Director the power to increase that fee.
