In January the USPS posted a notice on the Nevin Avenue post office indicating their intentions to sell the site and relocate retail operations to the McVittie Annex on Chanselor Street.
The public is not happy about this. A public meeting was held on May 31 with a USPS representative. A second meeting was held at the Nevin Community Center on June 15. This is a video recording of that meeting
