ROCK TAVERN – Postal workers gathered Friday at the Teamster’s Local 445 hall to discuss the future transfer of clerks and letter carriers to the Mid-Hudson Sorting and Delivery Center at the Stewart Airport Industrial Park in the Town of Newburgh.
Clerks and letter carriers from 17 towns are slated for transfer, but critics of the plan say local deliveries could be delayed, workers could be displaced, and the post offices built during the FDR administration may be sold off.
Letter carriers and clerks in Newburgh, New Windsor, Cornwall, Cornwall-on-Hudson, Clintondale, Maybrook, Salisbury Mills, Rock Tavern, Beacon and Wallkill are expected to begin their transfer this September.
