Summary
After New York Times reporting on abuse allegations against Cesar Chavez, the mayor's office asked the council to rename the Barrio Logan street for the park the community fought to create. Barrio Logan residents and Chicano Park founding families turned out in strong support. New signs should appear around mid-June, with Caltrans freeway signage to follow in the fall.
