Campton Civics and Town Government
Registered voters in Campton meet annually in March to act as the town’s legislative body and vote on budget, ordinances, and other matters of town government in the Town Meeting. Between these yearly meetings the town Selectmen’s Board, Officers, Committees, and School Board conduct the day-to-day business of governing the town of Campton. Your awareness of and participation in county, state, and national government are every bit as important as local engagement.
MAIL DELIVERY PETITION
Many residents have expressed great concern over the delivery of their mail for the past couple of years. Residents have opened multiple tickets with USPS with insufficient results. At this point we consider it a Public Health and Safety issue. Elderly and high risk community members are forced to go to the USPS office to pickup mail and/or packages (such as medication) instead of having them delivered to their mailbox or house where they can allow for the recommended sufficient quarantine time. The roads at times have been difficult to drive, but are passable within days, as the Town Of Campton is constantly putting down gravel to battle mud season. This is no excuse to not deliver mail and packages for weeks on end. THIS PETITION IS TO REQUEST USPS PROACTIVELY SEEK AN IMMEDIATE AND LONG TERM SOLUTION TO DELIVER MAIL TO ALL RESIDENTS OF CAMPTON.
