Title
Resolution Renaming the Town’s Blue Zone Pump Station as the “Anderson Pump Station” [1760 Meadows Blvd.]
Body
________________________________________________________________________________
Executive Summary
As outlined in Resolution No. 2013-56, A Resolution Adopting an Amended Town of Castle Rock Facility Naming Policy (Attachment B), the goal in selecting names for Town facilities is fostering a sense of community. This includes names that call attention to people who have helped shape the Town. The resolution further specifies that naming nominations can be submitted at any time, and that the Town Manager shall chair a Town staff committee for reviewing nominations for further consideration and/or recommendation.
The Castle Rock Water Department recently submitted a naming rights application (Attachment C) to name the Blue Zone Pump Station at 1760 Meadows Blvd. the Anderson Blue Zone Pump Station, in honor of 27-year Castle Rock Water employee Monty Anderson, who recently lost his battle with cancer. A committee consisting of Town Manager’s Office and Castle Rock Water staff have reviewed the nomination and recommend approval of a resolution (Attachment A) to name the Anderson Blue Zone Pump Station.
The 10 pump stations within Castle Rock Water’s system help get water to where it needs to go. The Blue Zone Pump Station is located along Meadows Boulevard near the Watercolor area. Rehabilitating the pump motor starter equipment at the station is one of the last projects Monty Anderson was part of at Castle Rock Water. His efforts greatly improved the facility’s operation and efficiency, which is the reason the Water Department recommends naming it in his honor. Additional examples of Monty’s skills and contributions to the community are in the attached nomination.
