SPANISH FORT – City officials are asking federal authorities to not close the community post office in January.
The Spanish Fort City Council voted unanimously Friday to pass a resolution opposing the closing and to appeal the decision. Mayor Mike McMillan said the closing would leave the city’s population of almost 10,000 and as many residents living outside the corporate limits with no post office north of Interstate 10.
“We passed a resolution basically opposing the closing of the Spanish Fort Post Office,” McMillan said. “We are appealing to them to follow their procedures of having predetermined hearings, mailouts, notifications of that. We also have noted that our Congressional delegation has been misled in this process, therefore we need to move forward.”
