USPS rescinds order for residents of Ohio town to install curbside mail boxes

stolen-mailbox1Arbor Circle residents, told by the U.S. Postal Service they were losing home mail delivery on Aug. 1 unless they had curbside boxes installed, are keeping the service.

David Van Allen, a USPS spokesman in Cleveland, said the letter sent to Arbor Circle residents, dated Saturday, was “rescinded” Tuesday — the day The Vindicator reported on the issue — because it was “sent out premature.”

When asked to clarify his statement, Van Allen said the Youngstown office made the decision without consulting the district office in Cleveland.

In a Tuesday letter to customers on Arbor Circle, George Augustine, the USPS customer service supervisor in Youngstown, wrote: “After further consideration and discussion, the previous letter requesting you to either move your mailbox or obtain a post office box is rescinded.” It fails to mention the local post office making the decision without the approval of the district office.
