Councilwoman Ami Nawrocki
Pueblo City Council-HARP Authority Representative
200 South Main
Pueblo CO,81003
Dear Ms.Nawrocki,
The HARP Foundation at their August 25th regular meeting voted to request that the Pueblo City Council
share in the cost of replacing the two existing 30 ft.center flag poles,one on each side of the Union Avenue
bridge,with 35 ft. flag poles,by providing the funds from the Council contingency account to purchase one
of the two flag poles in the amount of$3,760.00.
The passage by Pueblo City Council of resolution No. 12101, A RESOLUTION ADOPTING AN
OFFICIAL FLAG POLICY FOR THE CITY OF PUEBLO, required that the HARP Authority (the
Riverwalk is City owned property) comply with the official flag policy using the"Let's be Right on Flag
Etiquette”as a guide.As all of the flag poles on the Union Avenue bridge are of equal height,and following
the guidance provided in "Let's be Right on Flag Etiquette", required the HARP Authority to move the
American flags from the center most flag poles on the bridge to the most far right flag poles, and that the
other flags to be flown lower than the U. S. flag. This has caused a great deal of confusion in the Pueblo
community, asking why the flags are being flown at"half-staff',or just calling to inform us that the flags
are slipping,etc.
The HARP Authority would like to return the U. S. Flag back to its position of prominence in the center of
the bridge, but to do this we need to replace the two existing center position 30 ft. poles with 35 ft. poles.
The cost of the two, 35 ft. internal halyard bronze poles with shipping, one on each side of the bridge, is
$7,250.00.
The City Transportation Department has agreed to remove the existing poles and install the new poles.
These two existing 30 ft. flag poles would be available for use on other city properties.
Thank you for your consideration.
S' rely, ix1
