Default Imo.....

The internet is a wondrous place…..one can find the answer to any question they might have.

Unfortunately you will not always receive a correct answer. There is always someone ready to provide an answer without really knowing the question.

Some observations on this thread!!!

• First: I have not been able to find out who owns the mailboxes; …The USPS, the developer or the VCDD’s. Has anoyone else?
I might believe it’s the VCDD’s (that’s us) but I cannot find out online if that’s true.

• Secondly, If it’s not the USPS, I might believe that it is the owner’s right to decorate their mailboxes….you see decorative mailboxes all over the country. Therefore it might be “Villagish” and NOT against the law.

• Someone here observed that “It does not seem that hard to remember your box number” but it might be for other people and boy the stickers sure make it easier.

• 20 some odd years that The Villages has been here and everyone has NOT put stickers so it does not look like a “circus wagon.”

If it’s not broken…….
