DENVER (KDVR) — The City and County of Denver on Thursday ordered the closure of a United States Postal Service distribution center.
The facility is located at 7550 E. 53rd Pl. in northeast Denver and handles mail for all of Colorado and Wyoming, which have a combined population of about 6.5 million people.
The Denver Department of Public Health and Environment (DDPHE) says it “responded to clusters of COVID-19 cases involving multiple employees at several USPS locations over the last week.” The city did not disclose how many confirmed cases there are at the distribution center. FOX31 and Channel 2 have reached out to the city for those details.
On Wednesday, DDPHE staff visited the facility. However, they could only make “minimal observations” because of “the refusal of information and access to the facility,” the city said in a statement.
Usps is a federal agency Local cant close Them
Postal Management at its finest!
This is the same thing the the Oakland Mail Processing and Distribution Center did after the Loma Prieta earthquake in 1989!!!
Then they refused to remove the overhead conveyors and used them to hide the mail and falsify mail processing figures!!!
A little common sense would go a long way!. It shouldn’t take all the
drama to do the publics business.
