 Dear  City Councillors and Mayor Brown 

Please  ensure that Canada Post continue my door to door delivery. It is a good service and provides good jobs in London. My household does not  want increased municipal taxes downloaded by the feds along with the litter, graffiti, theft and eyesore that these boxes bring. Who will shovel the snow and clear the garbage?  These boxes are frequently broken in to. What about safety , particularly at night? Have you considered traffic flow and the loitering in front of residences that will inevitably occur.? Will small business owners be happy to see their flyers blowing around on the ground?  How many more good jobs will vanish from London?

The post office does not belong to Ottawa. It is a national institution and a mainstay of our community and contributes to the local economy. It belongs to all of us and it is successful. Don’t be fooled by want is an attempt to download  burden onto Londoners both through increased property Taxes and the accompanying decline in property values that will happen when one of these goes in front of your house?

Yours truly (name here)
