The LA City Council has voted unanimously to rename a street in Boyle Heights after the late Mexican singer Vicente Fernández.
"The legacy of Vicente Fernández continues to resonate and inspire people worldwide, making us proud to call ourselves Latino," de León said."Today, our city council took the rare action to recognize 'Chente' for his cultural contributions by memorializing him at one of our city's most cherished venues, Mariachi Plaza. Through his music, he has etched his place in history and on the hearts of fans who will forever cherish him.
"Many of them are LGBT members that expressed some concern," Silvas said."Now that this is moving forward, I think we need to, and we owe it to these members, that we really support them and reach out to them more than ever now." Instead, the council requested that public spaces be named for"non-living, historic figures who have had tangible and direct ties to the community of Boyle Heights."
