Residents in the 30215 zip code should have their own post office by next
year.
That’s the word from Taryne Youngblood, who works at the Fayetteville
Post Office. The new facility will be located on Huiet Road between Fayetteville
and Peachtree City and be completed sometime in 2001.
Right now, Fayetteville is just served by the main branch on Georgia Avenue
and the traffic can get a little congested.
“There’s not enough parking for the employees. We have to park
in the back,” she said.
The current post office is landlocked, so there’s no way the facility
could be expanded.
“When it was built, a lot of people didn’t want to sell their
land, so we weren’t able to get enough property,” she said.
Youngblood is not sure of the size of the new facility, but said it will
be staffed and also offer a drive-through window.
Postmaster Tourgee Simpson was in a meeting Tuesday and could not be reached
for comment prior to deadline.
