South Fulton Neighborhood Fights Discrimination by U.S. Postal ServiceCoverage of Madison Place Postal Issues by Channel 2 Action News.
|
Residents in the Madison Place Townhome community on Old National Highway are facing discrimination by the United States Postal Service. The Godby Road, 30349 Post Office has not delivered mail to most residents since November, including mail-order prescriptions for Seniors and Vote By Mail Ballots for Georgia's historic January 2021 Senate Runoffs.
Godby Road Post Office management first alleged the mail stoppage was due to a lack of parking in the now overbuilt townhome community, which has around 140 townhomes with one-car garages and no additional parking. Councilman khalid toured the neighborhood with the South Fulton Public Works department and developed a parking plan to identify spaces. Many of the parking issues were resolved, yet residents continue to not receive mail. Talks with the Godby Road Post Office broke down, and Madison Place's private HOA management declined to invest in the City's parking plan. Now some residents suspect collusion between the management company and Post Office to pressure the community into giving up their private mailboxes for a Community/Cluster mailboxes. Councilman is now helping residents organize to petition the Atlanta Postmaster for a Park & Loop Walking route, which many communities in wealthier, whiter areas already have. |
