Makes no sense.
Don't 99% of those who have a box in the current clusters, already drive to their mailbox?
I don't.
Most of my neighbors don't.
If mail delivery was converted to two large centralized locations, all of us would need to drive. In my case, no driving would increase to approximately 33 additional miles in my car per week.
Perhaps you missed some of kalakoa's recent (and not so recent) comments which suggests smaller more conveniently located areas zoned for shopping and other daily activities could reduce excess driving now necessary for life in Puna.
The location of HPP mailboxes follows the same principal.
