Over the last couple of months, business owners and government officials in downtown Astoria say they haven’t been regularly receiving their mail. Residents in nearby Warrenton and Gearhart have also reported issues with mail delivery. Local officials’ attempts to meet with the Astoria Postmaster have been unsuccessful, and a letter from three of Oregon’s federal lawmakers to the U.S. Postmaster General has yet to receive a response.
Reporter Fox Perez has been covering these developments for The Astorian. He joins us with more details.
