What:

The U.S. Postal Service is mailing a postcard to the St. Paul MN- White Bear Lake Branch addresses, announcing a proposed relocation of the Post Office located at 2223 5th St., Saint Paul, MN 55110-3024. The postcard provides information about the public comment period.  

Who:

USPS Real Estate Specialist Greg Shelton   

Background:

Due to space deficiency of the current Post Office, the Postal Service is now looking for a new retail location within two miles from the current location. The Postal Service will be looking for one of the following: (a) an existing building that is about 3,100 SF with about 20+ parking to move retail and keep carriers at the current location or (b) expand the current owned building and either buy the property around the building to expand or find parking for 100+ vehicles.   

The relocation project will consist of procuring a suitable substitute location, as close as reasonably possible to the existing location. Retail Services will continue at the current Post Office until all necessary preparations are completed at the new location.

We are inviting comments on the proposal and request they be sent to the following address within the next 45 days: United States Postal Service, ATTN: St Paul- White Bear MN Relocation, PO BOX 27497, Greensboro, NC 27498-1103. 

The Postal Service generally receives no tax dollars for operating expenses and relies on the sale of postage, products, and services to fund its operations.
