AURORA, Colo. â Aurora Mayor Mike Coffman on Monday said he s decided to put on hold his support for a camping ban in the city until I better understand what its impact will be on Aurora, though the mayor also pushed back on criticism he faced for comments he made last week about people living in homeless camps.
Coffman noted that Denver has a camping ban but still has a significant encampment problem and Aurora only has a modest problem.
