Letter to Post Office Review Coordinator
February 2010
Many surveys from the community have been submitted. We are awaiting a response from the Postal Service.
January 2010
The USPS has issued a survey to PO box owners in the Bryte Post Office. The survey will determine the interest and usage of this post office location by the community. The Postal Service is considering consolidating services into one branch on Jefferson Ave.
It is urgent that West Sacramento residents complete the survey and mail it before February 10, 2010. Copies of the letter, survey and contact information may be downloaded here.
2009
The Postal Service may consider closing our little branch post office, the Bryte Station at 1548 Lisbon Ave.
Your help is needed for a letter-writing campaign to keep the Post Office open. This historic building has been a vibrant and central part of our community for years. We do not want to see it disappear.
Our neighborhood is full of older immigrants who depend greatly on our postal branch to conduct postal business with their relatives “in the old country”. Their children, and/or grandchildren have moved away, they don’t speak English very well, they’re not on the internet, and, most importantly, after their experiences in the land of their birth, they may not invite government employees into their homes to pickup packages. They sometimes gather in two’s or three’s in order to help one another communicate with the clerk, and exchange greetings and news from the home they left behind. This branch is an integral, vibrant part of this community’s life.
