BOZEMAN, Mont. — An official U.S. Postal Service notice said the lease for the Babcock Station Post Office at 32 E. Babcock St. in Bozeman would not be renewed and the agency was considering a new retail location within the 59715 ZIP code.

The notice said USPS planned to send a postcard about the proposed relocation. It listed USPS Real Estate Specialist Robb Groetzinger with the project.

According to the notice, the Postal Service was considering leasing an existing building with about 4,800 square feet and 44 or more parking spaces for retail operations and employees. The agency said the new site would be as close as reasonably possible to the current location.

The notice said retail services would remain at the current Babcock Station site until preparations were finished at a replacement location.

USPS invited the public to submit comments on the proposal within 45 days to United States Postal Service, Attn Bozeman MT Babcock Station Relocation, PO Box 27497, Greensboro, NC 27498-1103.

The notice also said the Postal Service does not receive tax dollars for operating expenses and funds its operations through postage, products and services.
