I understand their concern being associated with Pueblo is embarrassing.

Besides the cost, is this really necessary? I live in Pueblo West and am pleased with our doctors, dentists,
hospitals, restaurants, etc. that are in Pueblo..and will changing the name make people forget how close it is
to Pueblo?

Walker's Ranch sounds too much like Walker Ranch, which is a Boulder Open Space Park.

Lake City already exists. It is in Hinsdale County, yes in Colorado also.

What marketing moron from out of state dreams up names that already exist in the same state?!?!!

Tumbleweed is not a CO city or town name as far as I know. Accurate for the local vegetation but not exactly alluring.

This renaming idea reminds me of the Metro State College campaign.

What's associated with West Pueblo? Desert, mountains, tumbleweeds, dry weather. Tumbleweed, CO could make a cut. Sage, CO?

That's my school now! Metro State College er-make that University! ... at Denver.

We could call it Town West. Town, afterall, is all that Pueblo is. Pueblo isn't the name of a town. It means town! Duh!
