TITLE
A RESOLUTION CHANGING THE NAME OF THE URBAN RENEWAL AUTHORITY
OF PUEBLO, COLORADO TO THE "PUEBLO URBAN RENEWAL AUTHORITY"
ISSUE
Should City Council change the name of the Urban Renewal Authority of Pueblo,
Colorado ("URAP") to the Pueblo Urban Renewal Authority?
RECOMMENDATION
The Board of Commissioners of URAP recommends approval.
BACKGROUND
The Board of Commissioners desires to change the name to be more consistent with
the naming convention used by other urban renewal authorities in the state. URAP
intends to relocate to a new office location in the fall of 2011. The Board believes this
would be a good time to effect the name change without significant cost. However, it is
noted that on October 13, 2009, after discussion at a Council Work Session, City
Council did not feel there was a sufficient justification to change the name.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
None anticipated.
