Agenda Item
8. Direction to staff regarding the submission of comments and letters on behalf of Washoe County in opposition to the United States Postal Service (USPS) conversion of the existing USPS Reno Processing and Distribution Center to a Local Processing Center, which would require local area mail to be processed in Sacramento not Reno, as outlined in the USPS's Initial Findings Document - Mail Processing Facility Review dated February 6, 2024. Manager's Office. (All Commission Districts.) FOR POSSIBLE ACTION
i urge the County Commision' to oppose the usps sending mail to sacramento to be sorted. a letter mailed across town should not need to go to sacramento first. road closures in winter, accidents over i-80 at anytime, should not delay important correspondence. mail to / from carson city or las vegas during legislative sessions would also be delayed. the postal workers union also opposes this change.
