Breaking: Lions Bay Post Office to Close

Permanent closure slated as of April 7

In a piece of correspondence delivered so late it didn't appear on the evening's Committee of the Whole meeting agenda, Council addressed information received today indicating the Lions Bay Canada Post outlet will be closing permanently.

The date provided for the closure is April 7, however the outlet, along with the rest of Lions Bay Store and Cafe is currently closed for the filming of a Netflix movie.

The store and cafe are expected to re-open sometime after the end of the movie shoot. Production is slated to end on April 5.

After discussion, members of Council concluded that mail and small parcel delivery will continue to be delivered to boxes as usual, but large parcel pick-up (currently being redirected to a postal outlet in Squamish) and other postal services will no longer be available.
