Aurora Colorado Apartment Closures, Criminal Nuisance Designations
Aurora Police Chief Todd Chamberlain issued letters deeming two apartment complexes "criminal nuisance properties" due to rising violent crime and deteriorating conditions. Local news reports based on internal communications suggest the city is threatening to close the buildings by September 30th. The terminology "criminal nuisance" is viewed by some as a way to downplay reported gang activity in the area.
