Beachland Post Office to Remain OPEN!

Last night, we received word that the Beachland Post Office located on East 185th Street will remain open and we are no longer at risk of losing our post office.

We want to thank everyone that completed a survey, contacted the post office directly, or contacted a politician on behalf of saving our post office.

We were told that our efforts to save the post office was the highest turn-out in Northeast Ohio of any community whose post office was threatened. This only reinforces our belief that this neighborhood is as strong and committed as any in our country. In addition, this outpouring of support also shows what we are capable when we all work together on a shared goal.

The Post Office is distributing a letter that reads as follows:

September 11, 2009

Dear Postal Customer:

In my letter of July 11, 2009, I informed you that the US Postal Service was conducting a review of Postal operations at the Beachland station with the possibility of consolidating it into the Collinwood station. After careful review of all data and customer input it has been determined that retail operations at this station will not be consolidated at this time.

Thank you for your patience during the review process.
