WE THE PEOPLE?
Why Are Portland City Commissioners Ignoring The Will of the People Who Do Not Support Changing Interstate Avenue to Cesar E. Chavez Blvd.?
Polls and Neighborhood Associations Say “No” To
Interstate Avenue Name Change Overwhelmingly!
Portland City Council refuses to listen to the people.
But the facts state that the people in lopsided voting
oppose changing historic Interstate Avenue’s name:
Overlook Neighborhood Association
86 Opposed Name Change - 6 in Favor
Arbor Ix>dge Neighborhood Association
67 Opposed Name Change - 11 in Favor
KATU (Survey USA Poll-500 people)
81% Opposed Name Change - 19% in Favor
KOIN Online Poll (1754 people)
96% Opposed Name ('hange - 4% in Favor
KGW
91% Opposed Name ('hange - 7% in Favor

Tell Commissioners Adams, Leonard, Saltzman &
Sten You Do Not Support the Name Change!
Or Interstate Avenue Becomes Extinct!
I he costs for such a name change will be significant for
90 plus businesses along Interstate Avenue. You see,
businesses on and near Interstate Avenue are just returning
to some profitability after 3 long years of building the
Interstate light rail. Such a name change would require
more of their hard-earned dollars to go out for new
signage, business stationary, marketing materials, truck
signage, invoices, websites...the costs quickly add up.

Let’s Find A Solution That Is Less Divisive To Our
Community And Less Costly To Small Businesses.
We have repeatedly asked the Cesar Chavez committee
to work with us in finding an equitable solution. So
many options are available to honor Mr. Chavez’s
legacy including new schools...libraries...and other
public buildings. These public buildings would not
have a costly impact on the small businesses and
citizens of a community. Doesn’t that sound fair?
