A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF EL SEGUNDO, CALIFORNIA, SUGGESTING
TO THE STATE DIVISION OF HIGHWAYS THAT THE
PROPOSED EAST /WEST FREEWAY BE NAMED THE
EL SEGUNDO FREEWAY.
WHEREAS, a number of cities have suggested that the pro-
posed East/ West Freeway bear the name of their city; and

name of the terminus of the freeway since the Arroyo Seco Freeway
was renamed Pasadena Freeway; and

East /West Freeway; and
WHEREAS, many aerospace firms of world -wide renown
are located in the City of El Segundo, and the name is already familiar
as a definite location to many who may visit this area; the name
"El Segundo Freeway" would have geographical identification for such
visitors;
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
EL SEGUNDO, CALIFORNIA, DOES RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. That the State Division of Highways is hereby
requested to name and designate that certain freeway currently referred
to as the "Century Freeway" the "El Segundo Freeway," in keeping with
the established practice of the California Highway Commission to name
freeways after their terminus.
SECTION 2. That the City Clerk is hereby directed to for-
ward a certified copy of this resolution to the State Division of Highways.
PASSED, APPROVED and ADOPTED this 24th day of February,
