BACKGROUND PAPER FOR PROPOSED
ORDINANCE
COUNCIL MEETING DATE: February 14, 2022
TO: President Heather Graham and Members of City Council
CC: Nicholas A. Gradisar, Mayor
VIA: Marisa Stoller, City Clerk
FROM: Scott Hobson, Acting Director of Planning and Community Development
SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE CHANGING THE STREET NAME OF SPAULDING
AVENUE LOCATED BETWEEN WEST 11TH STREET AND WEST 31ST
STREET
SUMMARY:
The City is requesting to change the street name of Spaulding Avenue, located between
West 11th Street and West 31st Street to meet the Pueblo City-County Addressing
Standards adopted in May 2010. The Planning and Zoning Commission held a public
hearing on December 12, 2021 to receive comments and provide a recommendation on
the following proposed names: Tava, Crain, Sun Mountain or Ranger Avenue or
Boulevard.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
None.
BACKGROUND:
The City staff is proposing to rename the future undeveloped section of Spaulding Avenue
that will be south of the intersection of West 31st Street and Spaulding Avenue. This
future street is east of Pueblo Boulevard, in the city limits between West 11th Street and
31st Street, terminating at the Southern Colorado Medical Center Subdivision. The Long-
Range Transportation Plan has previously identified this roadway as a connection
between the Parkwest area (Southern Colorado Clinic Subdivision) linking in the future
with 24th Street and 18th Street adjacent to Delores Huerta and Cesar Chavez schools.
th
24 Street is identified to be part of the future roadway corridor providing better access
from the west side of the city into Downtown Pueblo. Originally the road was platted to be
an extension of Tuxedo Avenue, however modifications to the Long-Range
Transportation Plan resulted in Tuxedo Avenue remaining as a north to south roadway
that did not connect to 31st Street. In April 2001, the future platted sections of this
roadway corridor were renamed to Spaulding Avenue to reflect the change in planning
direction. In 2021, City of Pueblo IT Department identified serval issues with the
continuation of the Spaulding including possible confusion with Pueblo West addresses,
driver disorientation from north-south travel lanes changing to east-west travel lanes, and
most importantly to avoid future conflicts in the addressing system in which there were
not enough numbers remaining to match the future address points. Most of this road
remains to be constructed including areas that are yet to be subdivided. In November of
2021, the City of Pueblo Planning Department reached out directly to the property owners
whose land was adjacent to future section of road. Upon receiving feedback, a public
th
meeting was held on December 12 via Zoom. At the meeting, the following names were
suggested: Tava, Sun Mountain, Crain and Ranger Avenue or Boulevard.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
There are no financial implications for the City.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
At the January 12, 2022 Regular Meeting of the Planning and Zoning Commission,
Commissioners Spinuzzi, Avalos, and Bailey recommended renaming the street to Crain
Avenue/Boulevard and Commissioners Aznar, Pasternack, and Castellucci
recommended renaming the street to Sun Mountain Avenue/Boulevard. The City Council
appointment to the Commission had not been filled at the date of the hearing.
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. Additionally,
all property owners whose land was adjacent to future section of road were notified. Upon
th
receiving feedback, a public meeting was held on December 12 via Zoom.
A Public Notice poster was placed on the subject property 15 days prior to the Public
Hearing.
ALTERNATIVES:
Upon request of City Council, the Ordinance could be returned to the Planning and Zoning
Commission for consideration of other proposed street names.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the Ordinance.
