The San Francisco County government meeting on July 4, 2025, focused on a significant resolution to honor the legacy of Sean Monterosa by naming a street after him. The proposed commemorative street name, Sean Monterosa Boulevard, will be located at the intersection of Park Street and Holly Park Circle in Bernal Heights, where Monterosa grew up.
The resolution was introduced by Supervisor Ronan, who was unable to attend due to recovery but was represented by Jackie Prager from her office. Prager emphasized Monterosa's impact on the community, noting that he was tragically killed by a Vallejo police officer in 2020. She highlighted Monterosa's contributions to the residents of District 9 and the broader Bay Area, stating that his legacy continues to inspire and empower local youth.
The Monterosa sisters, Michelle and Ashley, were present to support the resolution. They shared their family's journey since Sean's passing, expressing their commitment to ensuring his legacy lives on in San Francisco. They discussed various community initiatives, including art installations and a community library named in his memory, which aims to educate young people about social justice.
The sisters presented a PowerPoint showcasing Sean's involvement in the community, his role as a mentor to at-risk youth, and the various tributes created in his honor. They described how these efforts serve as a reminder of both his life and the need for ongoing conversations about social justice issues affecting youth in the city.
The meeting concluded with a call for support of the resolution, which aims to provide a positive symbol for the community and a lasting tribute to Sean Monterosa's contributions. The resolution is expected to foster healing and inspire future generations.
