I found the following post and response on the U.S.P.S. website: ---- 05/23/2001 11:17 AM --------------------------------------------- Is it legal for an individual to use a mailbox to deliver items that have not gone through the post office? i.e. leaving a birthday card in a friend's mailbox; estimate from landscaping service being left in mailbox. Thanks in advance!

Second, I am not the person who unilaterally gave permission and took a pledge of $500.00, therefore it is not my responsibility to explain myself or organization to the area. I did not vote for or employ them to act as my counsel or representative. Therefore, they need to get the word out effectively. Walter You wrote: Having been involved in community organizations myself, I think your demand that SHCA place a flyer in every mailbox (which I believe is illegal) every time it decides to hold a meeting is unrealistic. SHCA is a community organization consisting of a board of, I believe, non-paid volunteers. There are limits to what an all volunteer group can accomplish. Perhaps, since this issue is important to you, you can volunteer to distribute the meeting notices so those who work late and ignore postings can stay informed. Jonathan A.
