The renaming impacts East Kings Canyon Road, East Ventura Avenue and West California Avenue between Marks and Temperance.

The change is going forward after Fresno Mayor Jerry Dyer did not veto nor endorse the resolution.
Councilmembers Luis Chavez, Miguel Arias, and Nelson Esparza led the name-change efforts.
