PETERSBURG, ALASKA <br />
Hahn says he will stay on the job through July 31st. He will also be available for limited work after then. <br />
<br />
That prompted council member Rick Braun to propose an alternative approach.<br />
<br />
"If we didn’t accept his resignation, what we could do is renegotiate a different kind of job he could do for us."<br />
<br />
Hahn announced his plans Tuesday. He says he needs to care for aging parents in Colorado and complete a construction project in his former home of Cordova.<br />
<br />
Council members discussed several options. Mayor Al Dwyer said he preferred a contract arrangement if Hahn continued to work for the city.<br />
<br />
"He’s got a computer and he knows how to use it. He’s got emails and phones. I think the best thing for us would be to work as a consultant for us. It would make it simpler."<br />
<br />
Members voted 6 to 1 to accept the resignation, with Braun in opposition. The vote to advertise job was unanimous.<br />
