The U.S. Postal Service held a meeting Tuesday night to discuss a possible move of operations from Bowling Green to Nashville and Evansville.

Many people showed up to voice their opinions.

Around 200 people showed up to the meeting.

They had to sign in with post office representatives, but most also signed a petition at the front door saying they're against moving the processing center.

They say they have several issues with the move.

Representatives say customers should not be worried about delays in delivery, but several in the public still think it could be a problem.

"People who are used to mailing their Warren Rural Electric or BGMU bills in a day or two before they're due, they're going to have to change that because when this mail is sent to Nashville, it's going to be two or three days before it gets back and gets delivered within the city," said Gary Hall, former manager at the processing center.

"Most people I've talked to, they oppose this particular operation," said Charles Painter, a mail customer. "It's a matter of inconvenience for the customers."

Representatives showed a short video about "Area Mail Processing," also known as A.M.P.

They then answered questions from the public.

While they say they will save money, Hall disagrees.

"They can't do anything with the bottom line," said Hall. "If they take people out of this facility, contractually, union contract, they have to put them somewhere else, and if you can't take those people off the bottom line, you can't save anything."

While employees will keep their jobs, many say it's wrong to move those jobs out of Kentucky.

"Why would they shift jobs out of Kentucky to other states," said Painter. "We would lose tax revenues in this state, possibly city and county, from the jobs that are provided in this state. I don't think that's fair to the state of Kentucky."

"This is the third largest city in the state with the second largest university, and the processing of the mail should stay here," said Hall.

A final decision on the move will be made in the next two to three months.
