Earlier this week the Postal Service announced the potential relocation of services at the historic post office in Lamar, Missouri.
The notice says a relocation is necessary “due to space deficiencies” at the current location, 131 West 11th Street. The notice indicates that one possible scenario is that the Postal Service will move to a new location and sell off the historic property. That would be a real loss for Lamar.
The folks in Lamar may be well aware of deficiencies at the post office, but looked at from afar, the relocation notice makes the decision to relocate something of a mystery.
The notice shares no details about what the deficiencies are. (“Space deficiencies” is a common term in relocation notices.) The Postal Service instead provides detailed specifications — in terms of square footage and parking spaces — of what it is looking for in a new location.
