Rafael Cordero Santiago

Rafael Cordero Santiago (October 24, 1942 – January 17, 2004), better known as "Churumba", was the Mayor of Ponce, Puerto Rico from 1989 to 2004. Many considered him as a synonym of Ponce, being baptized as the Greatest Lion (or, El León Mayor in Spanish) in reference to the city's official symbol, the Lion. Mayor Cordero was a firm believer in the government decentralization process.〔(''New Initiatives Set to Boost Ponce’s Economy.'' Summit Reports 2003. Summit Communications, New York, NY. ) Chrumba was a firm believer in descentralization. Retrieved November 25, 2009.〕
During Churumba's term in the Ponce mayoral office, the city saw the construction of the Julio Enrique Monagas Family Park, the Tricentennial Park Plaza, and the La Guancha Boardwalk. In 1991, he instituted a restoration project for the 25 de Enero Street historical area, and in 1990 he spearheaded the conversion of the old Parque de Bombas into a museum. Also in 1990, he facilitated the establishment of Castillo Serralles as a museum.
Cordero Santiago is credited with re-establishing the "''Ponce en Marcha''" project in 1992, and there are some〔(''Autonomous Municipalities.'' ) Omar Malavet González. Inter-American University of Puerto Rico at San German. San German, Puerto Rico. February 2004. Retrieved 13 October 2011.〕 who also credit him with the passage by the Puerto Rico Legislature of the Autonomous Municipalities Act of 1991. One of his projects under ''Ponce en Marcha'' was the restoration of the Ponce Casino, as depicted on the plaque at the northern exterior wall of the restored casino building on Marina and Luna streets.
“Churumba” - a nickname given in reference to Cordero's height - is a Puerto Rican Spanish name given to small spinning tops. It is probably derived from the Andalusian Spanish term ''"churumbel"'', used to describe a small child. Churumba died on 17 January 2004, after a stroke at the Ponce City Hall.〔(''Ponce reconoce a Churumba Cordero con estatua.'' ) Sandra Caquias Cruz. El Nuevo Dia. 24 October 2011. Retrieved 28 April 2012.〕
==Early years==
Cordero was born in Barrio Playa in Ponce, Puerto Rico, to Don Bernardino Cordero-Bernard and Doña María de los Santos Santiago.〔(''Act Number 256.'' ) H. B. 2988; Act No. 256, Approved August 13, 2008. An Act: To direct the Public Structure and Highway Naming Commission of the Institute of Puerto Rican Culture to name Road PR-9 (Beltway) of Ponce after Rafael (Churumba) Cordero-Santiago. Legislature of Puerto Rico. San Juan, Puerto Rico. 13 August 2008. Retrieved 27 April 2013.〕 He attended public schools in Ponce: The Ramiro Colon and Rafael Pujals elementary schools, the McKinley middle school, and the Ponce High School. He graduated from the Pontifical Catholic University of Puerto Rico in 1964 with a bachelor's degree in Arts with a concentration in Political Sciences, Economy, and Social Sciences. As a student Cordero was a member of the Nu Sigma Beta Fraternity Delta Chapter.
Cordero was involved in Puerto Rican politics since 1969, when he began working as a special aide to former Governor of Puerto Rico Rafael Hernández Colón, then president of the Puerto Rico Senate. A member of the Popular Democratic Party (PPD), Cordero went on to work in the Departments of Finance and Workers' Rights (Spanish: ''Departmento del Derecho al Trabajo'').
