RE: Docket # 1371535-99149 Item #25 Page #7 Proposal to close Malden WA Post Office.


In Reply to your letter dated 12-02-2011


Your own report found the building to be “structurally sound in good condition”. Any appearance of dis repair on the exterior is purely cosmetic. It is a separate building from the old tavern, so don’t let the taverns appearance fool you. The post office building does not show stress fractures or other signs of instability. All it needs is a pressure wash and the mortar pointed, it would be as good as new.


You still have not addressed the concern of the buildings cultural significance; you just keep disputing the historical nature of the building. The interior is original and to the period of construction.  So I am not sure what pictures you took, but it is truly a unique building.
I do not dispute the truck will arrive, I am saying it can and will be late. Anyone wanting to conduct business with the carrier is forced to wait for him/her to arrive. People missing the truck, or needing a money order, certified mail or other specialty services will have to travel to Rosalia (admin office) to accomplish what needs to be done.


Don’t forget your new slogan…..”IF IT FITS…..IT’s DELIVERED!”. Anyone who’s package gets rejected due to size or excessive volume of mail, who cannot wait for re-delivery, will be forced to travel to Rosalia. THIS IS A CHANGE!!


The library goes back to limited hours in two years.


You are in violation of POM 101 121(a), 121(b), 121(c), 121(d), 121(e), 252(c), 321.6, 353.4, 715(a), 715(c), all equaling a 415.1(d) as well as sub sections (a), (b), and (c)


Please do yourselves a favor and find this proposal NOT WARRENTED before I appeal to the PRC.


Merry Christmas / Happy holidays

Nick Backman
