EDSR INFORMATION #1 05-10-1999 ( 4� ELK RIVER ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY April 19, 1999 Steve Muyskens United States Postal Service Facilities Service Office 6800 West 64th Street Building 8, Suite 100 Overland Park, Kansas 66202-4171 SUBJECT: Elk River Post Office Relocation Dear Mr.Muyskens: • The Elk River Economic Development Authority has directed me to provide a written response to the Postal Service's location decisions for its carrier annex facility. The purpose of this letter is to reaffirm the EDA's position that the Postal Service retain a retail presence in the Central Business District. I have enclosed a map identifying the boundaries of this district. The EDA questioned whether the new site selected would be for both a carrier annex and retail facility, or if it was just planned to house the carrier annex. Since selection of the site had been made public, city staff has heard numerous comments regarding the future accessibility of the Post Office as compared to its current location in the heart of the Central Business District. I would like to relay such comments as they certainly should be part of your decision making process when determining the future location of this facility. Lastly, I would like to request a meeting with you and other members of this project as you would see appropriate. Several of my EDA Commissioners have requested that they be in attendance at this meeting as well. Please call me at 612-441-4905 to set a time and date. I will be out of the office April 26 through April 30. I look forward to hearing from you soon with regard to this project. • 13065 Orono Parkway • P. O.
