Save the Post Office Charter 

Written by John Borg

OVERVIEW:

WHAT WE WANT:

This situation is complicated, no easy fix, and we need to focus pressure on the USPS decision makers, and garner support from elected county, state and federal officials to get a Post Office returned to Bolinas.  


Here is our 3-part demand mantra:

Public Officials:

PRESS:

We are working with local press to present a consistent, engaged and reasonable message with strong demands to bring the Bolinas Post Office home to our community. We encourage citizens who have stories of impacts and hardship to communicate it to our team or in public meetings. The human stories of impacts really help tell our story in ways that research and data points just can’t.

ENGAGEMENT WITH OFFICIALS:

Several Bolinas activists have been in conversations with County Supervisor Dennis Rodoni, and his staff, as well as the staff of Congressman Jared Huffman. It is too early to report any progress. Both offices are engaged and seem sympathetic, but we will need more support to navigate a messy project with Federal burecrats and to achieve our desired outcomes.  Any citizen is welcome to reach out to their representatives.
