Title
Discuss ZIP Code Boundary realignment request for Verona Subdivision located southeast of Cele Road and Weiss Lane.
Summary
The Verona Subdivision is located in the city limits of Pflugerville, southeast of Cele Road and Weiss Lane. Various commercially generated ZIP Code boundary maps show the subdivision in Pflugerville 78660, but some show Manor 78653. From the perspective of the United States Postal Service (USPS), operations to serve this subdivision are currently based out of the Manor Post Office, thus the associated Manor 78653 ZIP Code assignment. While the City of Pflugerville assigns 911 addresses within the city limits and the city's extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ) when a subdivision plat is required to be processed by the City, the associated ZIP Code is assigned by the USPS. City staff was contacted by residents confused about their non-Pflugerville zip code when homes began to be completed and occupied last year. Verona is among a number of subdivisions in Pflugerville in which the assigned ZIP Code does not align with the jurisdiction. For example, many on the west and far north sides of Pflugerville have a Round Rock 78664 ZIP Code. Following a review of the USPS policies and procedures for ZIP Code Boundary realignments and coordination with the Pflugerville Postmaster, the City's efforts would focus on resolving this particular circumstance affecting new development in the Verona Subdivision at this time. Staff solicited a petition from residents requesting the change.
