The owner of the Woodside Mail Office, which offers some 300 private mailboxes in the Woodside town center, has notified customers that negotiations with her landlord for a lease extension have come to a halt.
Betine Lee, who says she has been a tenant at 2995 Woodside Road in Woodside for 34 years, told the Almanac that the property owner gave her a 30-day notice on Oct. 9 to vacate the property.
The bright side, she said in a flyer she gave customers, is a possible opportunity to move to a retail location nearby, but that place wouldn’t be available until after the first of the year. Her goal, she said, is to keep her current location open until the end of the year.
“I will keep you posted of any updates as soon as I know them,” she said in her notice to customers.
Property owner Lee Ann Gilbert, when asked to comment, said in an email that she had been advised not to comment specifically, but that negotiations had “not come to a halt.”
“We are working towards a resolution for those mailbox holders but the ball is not in our court,” she said.
