LEGISLATION

Post Office Renaming: Avon, NY Facility Designated 'Officer Anthony Mazurkiewicz Memorial Post Office Building'

This bill is straightforward: it officially renames the United States Postal Service facility located at 80 Prospect Street in Avon, New York, as the “Officer Anthony Mazurkiewicz Memorial Post Office Building.” This designation is permanent, meaning that from the moment this bill is enacted, every federal map, document, and record referencing this specific address must use the new memorial name (SEC. 1).

The Real-World Impact: Honoring Local Heroes

For most people outside of Avon, NY, this is purely an administrative change, but for the local community, it’s a significant act of remembrance. These types of bills don't change postal rates, delivery times, or the services offered inside the building. Instead, they serve an important symbolic function: memorializing individuals who made a profound local impact. If you live or work in the area, the only change you'll notice is the new name on the sign above the door and potentially on official mail routes or documents.

No Policy Shift, Just Paperwork

As a piece of legislation, this bill is laser-focused and carries virtually no policy implications or financial burdens for the general public. It doesn't adjust federal budgets, create new regulations, or affect anyone's rights. The only work involved is the administrative task of updating federal databases and ensuring the local post office puts up the new signage. It’s a clean, honorary measure designed to provide a lasting public tribute to Officer Anthony Mazurkiewicz, ensuring his name remains a fixture in the community he served.
