Clarksville Post Offices to remain open thanks to lawmakers
Clarksville Montgomery County should be thankful to have great lawmakers in Nashville like Senator Tim Barnes and Representative Joe Pitts who both fought very hard from the onset to stop our local post offices from being shutdown. Once it was announced that these post offices were on the list considered for closure they went right to work to insure that the ever growing population of Clarksville – Montgomery County and Fort Campbell would not be inconvenienced or left hanging in the least bit.
Anyone that has gone to the post office recently knows how it feels to stand on already long lines, and closing even a single post office in this growing city would have been a catastrophe.
