Residents in the Houston area are currently experiencing significant delays with the United States Postal Service, with one woman reporting her package took 81 days to be delivered. Kassy Garza's package bounced between USPS processing centers in north Houston and Missouri City before being sent back to Dallas. These delays come at a critical time as Wednesday marks the last day homeowners can pay their property taxes without facing penalties, and there may be delays on the online payment site during the last hours before the deadline. The Office of Inspector General had previously identified issues at the north Houston USPS processing and distribution center in a report last year, which may be contributing to the ongoing service disruptions.
