House Joint Resolution 10 26 designated Colorado State Highway 402 from U.S. Highway 287 to Interstate 25 as the Rep. Hugh McKean Memorial Highway. The chamber adopted the resolution by recorded vote: 63 yeas, 0 nays, 2 excused. Sponsors listed the route and asked the House to permit the Colorado Department of Transportation to accept donations for sign placement and to explore a cooperative agreement with Larimer County for sign maintenance. The House also recessed briefly so members could greet McKean’s family following the vote.
Why it matters: The resolution memorializes a long‑serving member of the House and creates a program-authority path so CDOT can accept gifts and arrange maintenance of memorial signs. The floor debate included multiple members’ tributes reflecting McKean’s years of local and state service.
