The U.S. Postal Service will conduct a public meeting to discuss its proposal to relocate mail processing operations from the South Florida Processing and Distribution Center, 16000 Pines Blvd in Pembroke Pines, to the Miami Processing and Distribution Center, 2200 NW 72 Avenue in Miami.
The meeting will take place from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm on Thursday, November 17, at Florida Technical College, 12520 Pines Blvd in Pembroke Pines.
With the deep decline in mail volume due to current economic conditions and continuing electronic diversion, the Postal Service has an excess of employees and equipment in some mail processing operations. A study was begun on September 15, 2011 at the South Florida Processing and Distribution Center to determine the feasibility of consolidating redundant operations to see if any efficiencies and cost savings would be achieved.
Initial study results support consolidating mail processing operations that are currently being performed at the South Florida Processing and Distribution Center by taking advantage of available processing capacity at the Miami Processing and Distribution Center in order to increase efficiency and improve productivity.
While no final decision has been reached, Postal Service managers will give an overview of the reasons for the proposal and its possible outcomes, and will listen to community input and concerns. A summary of the proposal and presentation materials will be made available on usps.com one week before the meeting date.
Anyone who wishes to submit comments in writing can send them to Manager, Consumer and Industry Contact, South Florida District, 2200 NW 72 Ave, Rm 225, Miami FL 33152-9631. Public comments will be accepted through December 2, 2011.
