Twenty-four residences have had mail delivery suspended after the U.S. Post Office announced it will no longer service mail along portions of Santa Fe Drive due to “unsafe” road conditions.
The announcement came as a shock, but not a surprise to Mayor Bruce Ehlers, who was first informed of the situation in an interview with North County Pipeline on Thursday. He said the suspended service, among other safety concerns, is why the City Council pumped the brakes on the project in January.
An email from Carrie Mannon, supervisor of customer services for the Encinitas Post Office, confirmed those residents must pick up their mail as delivery is suspended. The city has reconfigured Santa Fe Drive from Gardena Road to Evergreen Drive east of Interstate 5, which has received significant backlash from residents, healthcare workers, businesses and motorists for months.

Postmaster General Dejoy is working to dismantle the USPS in its entirety. He holds stock in other delivery services that will profit greatly for tanking the USPS. Grrrr. The USPS was never intended to be a profit making venture. It was always a gift to the public for the last couple of hundred years. So much for that gift to the American public, if Dejoy is allowed to have his profiteering way with the United States Postal Service.
ReplyDeleteEhlers and new council voted to make a permanent construction site. There was no suspension of service before that.
ReplyDeleteThis council is a disaster.
Is Luke going to pick up a gun to solve this? Probably not, because postal workers will shoot back.
MarcoJeremyKrankz should hand deliver to the suspended locations 7 days a week.
ReplyDeleteThat'll teach em to refrain from their halfwittery
Rumor mill saying they might use mental retardation as defense for crime
ReplyDelete“ He said the suspended service, among other safety concerns, is why the City Council pumped the brakes on the project in January.”
ReplyDeleteThis is likely a lie. Bruce is saying that the post office communicated this prior to the meeting in January. Funny how that never came up in the meeting though it would have been highly relevant.
Someone needs to do a public records request for any communications to council from the postal service.
If there’s nothing there, Bruce is a liar.
Hard to give up the advantage isn’t it? This disaster is why y’all lost.
DeleteIt’s terrific watching you losers exactly where we were the last 8 years. In the back seat. Except, you got nothing on nobody. Just empty hype.
It’s a beautiful thing to watch. So will the dismantling of all your pet projects and poor decisions.
An absolute pleasure watching you idiots squirm and burn.
Im shocked shocked that a shithole loser like you would be unbothered by lies.
DeleteMaybe we could get The Shyndler to teach the mailmanz to ride their bikes on the sidewalk when delivering mail on Santa Fe. This problem could be totally solved.
ReplyDelete- Phony
