There will be a "Town Meeting".  This "Town Meeting" will be to discuss the possible closing of the College Hill Post Office.   

Post Office Officials will be in attendance to present their views and to get input from the community.

It is VITAL that all of College Hill turns out to show our support for keeping the post office in College Hill.

Obviously the petitions that have been signed, and submitted, by many of you have been helpful in showing our concern.  A LARGE turnout, of visible concerned residents is even more effective!!!!!!!!!!! 

For the meeting carpool, walk, hike get there by whatever means necessary.  Check with your friends and neighbors to see if they need rides.  Let's do everything that we can do to get to that meeting. Let nothing deter us from this endeavor!!!!!   

FEASIBILITY STUDY:  As a College Hill Resident you probably received this study.  Please, Please fill it out and return it promptly.  We received it today, Wednesday, November 2nd.  Our office will fill it out and put it in Thursday, November 3rd's mail.   

No matter what is planned we ALL need to continue the course to STOP any closure at  ALL COST!!!!!

We truly appreciate EVERYONE doing THEIR PART.      

----------------------------

We are awaiting a date and time but must remain vigilant.  Until then Thank You All ~ If No One Else Has Said It! 

According to the office of Steve Chabot this is NOT a done deal.  There will be a hearing that will be open  to the public.  No date or time has been revealed as of today! 

Also, any legal resident of Hamilton County can sign the petition! 

And as previously reported ~ please know that Hartman & Erhrmantraut CPAs will provide you with as many of these blank petitions, as you would like.  Please feel free to take them and have them signed in your neighborhood ~ or anywhere else in College Hill that you can cover.

The eNewsletter is published every week or so by the volunteers listed below. Our purpose is to help make College Hill an even better place to live, play and do business by publishing a broad spectrum of news for and about College Hill, with an emphasis on stories of College Hill people working together to improve our community. 

The eNewsletter is independently prepared and published by neighborhood volunteers.  It is not affiliated with the College Hill Forum Community Council.  Opinions expressed here are not necessarily those of any College Hill or other organization--or even of the editors. The inclusion of an article is not necessarily an endorsement. The fact that something isn't in the eNewsletter is not necessarily a lack of endorsement--it's most likely because no one told us about it.  

eNewsletter photos are often improved through editing.

Send us news that you think would be interesting to your College Hill neighbors--and we'll very likely publish it. Email to eNewsletter@collegehilloh.net.
