Group Three mailboxes to be installed June 25

The replacement of Group Three mailboxes will start Monday, June 25, and is anticipated to be completed by Friday, June 29. USPS mail delivery will cease at Group Three locations starting Friday, June 22. Residents will need to retrieve mail from their existing mailboxes before this date.

Mail will be held by USPS Sun City Post Office until the new mailboxes are installed. Once the mailboxes are installed, mail will resume and all “hold mail” will be delivered by the postal carrier to the new mailboxes. Normal mail delivery at these locations will resume on or before Friday, June 29.

Residents are encouraged to sign up for the Informed Delivery service offered by USPS. This free service allows you to digitally preview your mail as it arrives. This service will email you greyscale images of the exterior, address side of letter-sized mail-pieces as well as track packages. To sign up for this free service, visit informeddelivery.usps.com.

Starting Monday, June 25, Group Three may pick-up their new mailbox keys at the POA’s Operations office, 29081 Longhorn Dr., Monday through Friday from 6:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. New mailbox keys will only be provided to the homeowner, valid tenant, or property manager. The individual must provide proper identification and complete a Mailbox Key Release Agreement.

At the February Regular Session Board Meeting, the POA Board of Directors approved $390,182.03, plus 2.5 percent contingency, to replace the aging mailbox clusters throughout the community with more secure and aesthetically pleasing units. The existing free-standing pedestal-style cluster mailbox units and parcel mailboxes will be replaced with front loading cluster mailbox units that combine both mailboxes and parcel boxes.

The new units are made of heavy duty aluminum with stainless steel hardware, making them more secure than the existing mailboxes. The mailboxes will be replaced based on their condition, the worst being replaced first. The location of the mailboxes and individual box numbers will remain the same.
