阿肯色州埃尔多拉多市10月15日成「一日首府」 系桑德斯任内第26座

阿肯色州长萨拉·赫卡比·桑德斯(Sarah Huckabee Sanders)签署公告,指定联合县县治埃尔多拉多市(El Dorado)为10月15日的阿肯色州「一日首府」。公告于10月12日签署,埃尔多拉多是桑德斯任内第26个获此安排的城市。
按照桑德斯设立的「一日首府」安排,州政府高级官员随州长进城,与当地官员会面办公,州府政务在这一天移师受指定的城市。GSM此前报道,10月8日的斯普林代尔市(Springdale)是第25个「一日首府」。
州长公告介绍,埃尔多拉多1843年由马修·雷尼创建为联合县县治,1870年5月5日设市,城名源自西班牙语,意为「镀金之路」。该市在19世纪末铁路通达后发展起木材等产业;1921年1月,当地第一口油井 Busey No. 1 号井完井,埃尔多拉多的发展轨迹由此改变,1923年时市内已聚集数十家石油公司,至今仍被视为阿肯色南部的能源枢纽。市内有墨菲艺术区(Murphy Arts District)、南阿肯色植物园、石油遗产公园和历史悠久的Rialto剧院(Rialto Theater)。
El Dorado Serves as Arkansas' Capital for a Day on October 15, the 26th City under Governor Sanders
Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders has signed a proclamation naming El Dorado, the seat of Union County, as the state's Capital for a Day on October 15. The proclamation, signed October 12, makes El Dorado the twenty-sixth city to host the program under Governor Sanders.
Under the governor's Capital for a Day program, senior state government officials join the governor in the designated city to meet with their local counterparts, and the seat of state government moves there for the day. GSM previously reported that Springdale served as the twenty-fifth Capital for a Day on October 8.
According to the proclamation, El Dorado was founded in 1843 by Matthew Rainey as the seat of Union County and incorporated on May 5, 1870; its name originates from the Spanish phrase meaning "the Gilded Road." Railroads in the late 1800s opened the door to industries such as lumber, and the completion of the area's first oil well, Busey No. 1, in January 1921 forever changed the city's trajectory — by 1923 it was home to dozens of oil companies and is still considered an energy hub in South Arkansas today. The city is home to the Murphy Arts District, the South Arkansas Arboretum, Oil Heritage Park and the historic Rialto Theater.
