I CONTACTED THE TEMP MAIL PERSON ABOUT CLEANING THE MAIL BOXES. HE SUGGESTED THAT WE CONTACT OUR REGULAR MAIL PERSON AND ASK HIM TO FILE A MAINTENANCE REPAIR FORM. THEN THE POST OFFICE WILL SEND ONE OF THEIR CONTRACTORS OUT TO REFURBISH THE BOXES. THEY WILL REMOVE THE GRAFFITI AS BEST THEY CAN AND RESURFACE THE BOXES TO LOOK LIKE NEW. WE CAN DO OUR PART AND KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR THE CHILDREN (SOME ACT LIKE) THAT ARE DEFACING THESE BOXES. ALSO KEEP AN EYE ON YOUR OWN CHILDREN SO THEY WILL NOT SNEAK OUT OF THE HOUSE AFTER DARK. MOST OF THE MISCHIEF HAPPENS DURING THE NITETIME HOURS. ALSO KEEP THE SPRAY PAINT, PERMAMENT MARKERS, FINGERNAIL POLISH AND OTHER MARKING SUPPLIES UNDER LOCK AND KEY. KEEP THEM INVENTORIED AS WELL. WHEN SOMETHING IS MISSING ASK QUESTIONS. THE PERSONS THAT ARE DOING THESE THINGS MIGHT ALSO BE THE KIDS SMOKING POT UNDER THE SMALL DRAINAGE DITCH BRIDGE ON MARY TODD. IF YOU SEE SOMETHING WRONG REPORT IT TO THE SAN ANTONIO POLICE DEPARTMENT AT (210) 207-7273 OR DIAL 311. IN AN EMERGENCY DIAL911. IF IT IS NOT A BIG PROBLEM, CALL OR CONTACT A MEMBER OF THE BOARD OR COMMITTEE MEMBER, OR CONTACT MR JIM MATHIS AT (210) 344-2222 EXT2. tHANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS AND CONCERNS, LAIRD.
