BACKGROUND PAPER FOR PROPOSED
ORDINANCE
COUNCIL MEETING DATE: January 13, 2020
TO: President Dennis E. Flores and Members of City Council
CC: Nicholas A. Gradisar, Mayor
VIA: Brenda Armijo, City Clerk
FROM: Scott Hobson, Acting Director of Planning and Community Development
SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE CHANGING THE STREET NAME OF CENTRAL
AVENUE TO MCCULLEY AVENUE
SUMMARY:
The applicant is requesting to change the street name of Central Avenue to McCulley
Avenue.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
None.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Pueblo is requesting to change the street name of Central Avenue to McCulley
Avenue. The request was filed by the City of Pueblo Planning and Community
Development Department and strongly supported by the McCulley family and community
members. The McCulley Family has been serving the Pueblo community since 1968.
Charles W. McCulley and Petra Gonzalez de McCulley acquired the Jones Mortuary,
which had exclusively served the local Hispanic and African American populations since
1921. The McCulleys put down roots in Pueblo, founded Angelus Chapel Mortuaries and
have since cared for any family in need of service. As civic leaders in their community,
the McCulleys were involved with the Greater Pueblo Chamber of Commerce, Latino
Chamber of Commerce of Pueblo, Mount Carmel Credit Union, Pueblo Human
Resources Commission, Posada, YWCA, Catholic Charities La Familia Fuerte, NAACP,
Martin Luther King Jr. Holiday Commission, Disabled American Veterans, Pueblo Girls
Club, the Masonic and Elks Lodges, and the Colorado State Fair Fiesta Day Parade. The
family owns and operates Zaragoza Hall. There are currently eleven (11) properties
addressed on Central Avenue that will need an address change to McCulley Avenue.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
The City will be replacing all street signs with the new name, the approximate cost to
replace street signs at 12 intersections is $1,375.44. The Colorado Department of
Transportation will change the street name on all highway signs by riveting the new name
over the old name at no charge to the City. The City Parks and Recreation Department
may incur some costs associated with changing the address, in promotional and
informational materials for Bessemer Park and the swimming pool.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
The Planning and Zoning Commission, at their December 11, 2019 Regular Meeting,
voted 7-0 to recommend approval.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
The Planning Department sent out Notice of the Planning and Zoning Commission Public
Hearing to all property owners located within 300 feet of the subject property. Certified
letters providing notice of the Street Name Change were sent to Central Avenue property
owners. A notice letter was also sent to the physical address on Central Avenue to notify
the tenants of properties addressed on Central Avenue.
ALTERNATIVES:
If City Council does not approve this Ordinance, the current street name would remain.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the Ordinance.
