Saturday service soon a thing of the past
Business owners, leaders react to U.S. Postal Service decision
STERLING – Lots of folks across the Sauk Valley see little personal impact from the decision this week to eliminate Saturday mail delivery.
The mayor of a small community said that while his residents don’t like the decision by the U.S. Postal Service, they have little choice in the matter.
The U.S. Postal Service announced Wednesday that it will halt Saturday mail service beginning in August to save $2 billion a year. The decision will not affect the delivery of packages.
