citylogo_sealThe city of Santa Clarita is reaching out to residents to help retain the United States Post Office location in the Newhall community. The United States Post Office on Lyons Avenue recently ended its lease at its former Newhall location and relocated to a temporary space in the Valencia Marketplace, located on the Old Road.

The United States Postal Service is currently conducting a market survey to identify potential locations in the area. The survey is expected to be completed and shared with the community in late January, followed by a 30-day comment period where residents can voice their opinions on where the post office should be located.

mug_marshamclean“The former Newhall post office served countless nearby residents and businesses. It is the city’s desire that the United States Postal Service consider relocating the post office to a site within the Newhall area, so the surrounding community may continue to enjoy convenient access to its services,” said Santa Clarita Mayor Marsha McLean.

During the 30-day comment period, residents may communicate their desired location to the United States Postal Service. Interested citizens can visit Santa-Clarita.com/USPS to sign up to be added to an interest list to receive updates on the issue and information on how best to correspond with the United States Postal Service.

For more information about the United States Post Office relocation, please contact Matt Levesque, Administrative Analyst for the City of Santa Clarita, at (661) 255-4902 or visit Santa-Clarita.com/USPS.

  1. I think the Liquor (Lottery) Store there misses them too.

    Hello, I live on Walnut Street, and while
    I own a car and can manage to get to the
    Post Office many in the Old Newhall area
    use public transportation, or walk where
    they need to go. There needs to be an office
    in Newhall, preferably east of Orchard
    Village Rd.

  3. Denny says:

    With the government entitlement mentality displayed by the staff at the Newhall Post Office there’s not all that much to miss. It would be good if these folks had to find real jobs. Unfortunately, they’ll just be shifted to another location to exhibit their limited customer service skills.

  4. Cynthia Jacobson says:

    PLEASE bring back the post office back to Newhall. Stevenson Ranch is just so out of the way and not an easy place to get too. Lots of traffic. But mainly, the elderly that are use to having their post office near them, some can no longer get to the post office due to transportation. Before they could walk.
    Just please bring it back!!
    Thank you!
    SCV resident for 35+years.

    With the size of this community we need more post offices.
