Outgoing mail receptacles

I have had very few problem with the U.S. Postal service. But recently I =

came upon a problem which I thought would have been resolved.

I live in Las Vegas, Nevada 89108 on 1228 Silver Prospect Drive. There =

is a bank of mail boxes in front of my house. Sometime ago some one =

broke into the outgoing mail compartment. I reported it to the post =

office and was told that these repairs were done on Wednesdays. =

Several;Wednesdays went by and It was not repaired. Every time that I =

mentioned it I was told that because someone had broken it, would =

probably not be repaired. In anger I reminded them of the recent hike in =

postal rates and now they were not going to repair mail box damages =

because some one broke in, perhaps that some one did not even live in =

the area.

The way I see it, un repaired damages to mail boxes, will encourage =

those wreckers to break into personal boxes because if Postal Service =

is not going to repair damages, it will be easier for them to have =

access to outgoing mail which may have money it them. I would think that =

this sight would make property values go down because no one wishes to =

move into an area that is not kept up.

I consider my complaint as justifiable and honest and would hope that I =

am favored with a reply of explanation of why things are being done as =

they are. I would also like to know what can be done to correct them. My =

suggestion would be to secure the front door to the outgoing receptacle =

frame so that it does not open. The mail person has access to it via the =

back and he is the only one who needs access.

This solution would establish the Postal Service ingenuity, while =

providing safe handling of outgoing mail.

If you are not the ones who solve this, please let me know the procedure =

on contacting those in authority to solve my complaint. I do think that =

my solution would work.

Please let me hear from someone.

Thank you.
