1. Westwood Post Office Update

In a previous communication, I noted rumors regarding our post office at the Federal Bldg., 11000 Wilshire. I have since received the following information from Congressman Waxman's office:

Our post office in Westwood will be downsizing. This means that our postal carriers will be assigned to other offices and will be moved according to their zip codes. Our 90024 carriers will be receiving mail and sorting at the Brentwood Post Office on Barrington. Vacation hold will be moved to the Barrington post office as well.

PLEASE NOTE: The Westwood Post Office will keep a retail store open as it is now. They will sell stamps and accept packages.

The change/move will take place on September 21, 2013. For further information, please contact Benjamin Baladad, the USPS public contact, at (323) 586-3709.

I am checking if there will still be a drive through where we can drop our outgoing letters in a post box. Additional info will follow.

2. Westwood LAPD Crime Report

Robbery:

900 block Malcolm Ave (Sidewalk) RD: 828. MO: On 8/28/13, at 2300 hours, the victim was walking on the sidewalk when he was approached from behind by the suspect. The suspect asked the victim for the time and as the suspect did so he spun the victim around grabbing the victim's backpack in the process. The suspect overpowered the victim and forced away his backpack. The suspect then left the location with the victim's backpack. Suspect: Male, Black, black eyes, 5'11" tall, 27-30 yrs old, wearing a beanie with a brim, and a black sweater

3. Possible Coyote Attack

A resident reported that last Wednesday evening (Aug. 28), around midnight, there was a disturbance near Lomond and Comstock. It sounded like a fight between animals, possibly a coyote attacking a dog or cat. This is a reminder to please keep your pets safe inside.

4. Westwood Library Booksale

Friends of Westwood Used Booksale is coming up on Saturday, Sept. 7 from 10:30 to 3:30. Come pick up some amazing bargains and help the Friends of Westwood Library raise money to put right back into our beloved library, in the form of new books, computers, programs and more.

5. HWPOA COMMUNICATION AND AD POLICY

Please direct all comments, questions or issues regarding the HOLMBY NEWS to hwpoa@aol.com and not to holmbywestwood@yahoogroups.com.

Residents have complained about too many HWPOA emails during the week so I, as Moderator, try to limit HWPOA messages during the week, ads in particular, to posting in the weekly NEWS. Emergency type situations such as coyote sightings, lost and found pets, traffic alerts and similar emergency type situations will continue to be published during the week as received.

This policy will be published each week preceding the Resident Ads section of the HOLMBY NEWS as a reminder of the policy, how to place the ads and why the policy was established. There is always an exception considered if needed for an emergency type ad situation.

When placing an ad, please send to hwpoa@aol.com for the HOLMBY NEWS Moderator to review. The receipt of the ad will be confirmed. Responses to ads should be directed to the ad placer, not to HWPOA. Do not respond to the holmbywestwood Yahoo email address.

Thank you,
Dana, the HOLMBY NEWS moderator/editor
