Default The Villages needs a new post office!

Got a message in my mailbox that said I owed $8.66 postage due. They didn’t say what it was for, who it was from, where/whom to pay, or provide a tracking number. And there was no Form 3849 which is needed to request redelivery. I had no idea what it was.

Now they say I must contact the Lady Lake post office to inquire. They don’t answer their phones, and it’s an hour and a half drive (round trip), and I don’t even know if they still have the item or have already returned it to the sender.

The Lady Lake post office may have been conveniently located 10 years ago. But with the expansion southward, it’s now a big chunk of the day to drive there for those of us in the south. Why is it so difficult to include a more convenient branch post office that serves the Villages somewhere amidst all the new development in the south?
