Council requests staff research on feasibility of Robinson post office

At the close of the Aug. 29 meeting, a council member asked city staff to research the feasibility of establishing a U.S. Postal Service facility in Robinson. The council member said residents are "tired of being Waco's ugly stepchild" and requested a "definitive return" from staff on the issue.

The request was recorded by the mayor as a future-agenda item to be researched by city staff; no formal motion, vote or timeline was offered during the meeting. The mayor acknowledged the request with "dearly noted." The item was not discussed further at that meeting.

The transcript records the request as direction to staff to research feasibility; it does not specify scope, costs, likely funding sources, or a reporting date. Because the request did not include a motion or an assigned department with a due date, staff follow-up will be necessary to specify next steps and any required council action.
