Mail Service Talk Yields Promise of Improvement for Tarrytown, Rivertowns

TARRYTOWN, NY - Mail service in the Town of Greenburgh could see improvements in the future.

Supervisor Paul Feiner said he spoke Thursday with the chief operating officer of the United States Postal Service about the hundreds of complaints received by the town because of misdirected or undelivered mail.

“Many of the complaints received deal with receiving mail addressed to someone else,” Feiner wrote in an email.

He said people have told him they cannot depend on medicine being delivered by the postal service, about bills not being received and of insured mail not being delivered.

Feiner spoke with David Williams, who said he understood the town’s concerns and promised to provide a plan of action to address service delivery.

Williams said he would request a face-to-face meeting with the manager of the Westchester district to discuss the problem.

Feiner said he felt Williams was responsive to the community’s concerns.

“I feel that he wants to improve service, and to be responsive to Greenburgh and Westchester postal customers who have complaints,” he said.
