Chicago is infamous for having the worst mail delivery service of the major urban areas in the U.S.
We only occasionally have problems, and I'm pretty sure these only happen when our normal postal carrier is on vacation, or ill. However, there are frequent glitches elsewhere in the city, no doubt.
Our alderman, the infamous Burt Natarus, is apparently making improving mail service a platform in his re-election efforts. Good for him, but can't say I would waste time going to this meeting, not even to meet my Moony Congress-critter, Danny Davis.
As part of my continuing efforts to help resolve downtown mail delivery problems, I am hosting a Town Hall Meeting on Thursday, January 25th. Representatives from the Post Office will be on hand to answer your questions and discuss the steps they are taking to improve mail delivery. I have also invited Congressman Danny Davis, Chairman of the United States House of Representatives Postal Caucus to help in the discussion.Details on the meeting are as follows:
