The U.S. Postal Service has established a Post Plan designed to prevent shutting down more than 3,700 rural post offices across the country, including more than 150 in West Virginia. The Post Plan's four options include keeping the post offices open with reduced hours, closing the post offices and offering curbside delivery, establishing village post offices or closing the post offices and providing post office box service at another nearby post office. At some point between now and 2014, the USPS will hold community meetings for all 3,700 rural post offices to explain the plan in more detail and answer questions from residents about what they want to see. Wednesday, the USPS will hold Post Plan meetings for the communities of Asbury and Crawley in Greenbrier County, Greenville in Monroe County and the Fayette County community of Winona. An October 11th meeting is set for the Lookout post office in Fayette County.
