Mr. Richard Caplan:
P. O. Cia
Z would lake to re,uest that the Town Council consider an ordin.nce
requiring all new construction of 3 or more units to provide mail
receptacles for the delivery of mail. out on the street. These
receptacles should be in cluster type delivery. This I believe
' would proz~ote our city delivery and would hopefully alleviate
so~,e of the con~,•estion that occurs in our par~.rg lots between
the Fost Office and Town building.
From the Fost Office standpoint it would mean less stops out on
the street, less gas consumption for our vekaicles. The town would
benefit in terms of snow removal by not having to plow around
these clusters. It would appreciate arty considerstion in this
regard{~
Sincerely
