SUMMARY:
This Resolution officially designates Colorado State Highway 47, which is commonly
known as University Boulevard, as Cesar Chavez Boulevard. This name designation

PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
None.

signs, totaling $1,656.46.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
None.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
In late 2005 and early 2006, LULAC Council #3043, GI Forum, Latino Chamber of
Commerce, Chicano Democratic Caucus, and the Eastwood Height Community
Association, wrote to, petitioned, and spoke with City Council, the Pueblo County
Commissioners, PACOG, the Colorado State Legislature, and other Pueblo community
organizations, about naming of the highway.
ALTERNATIVES:
Leave named as commonly known University Boulevard.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the Resolution.
