Tenants of Aurora apartments forced to vacate; city cites code violations [Video]

AURORA, Colo. (KDVR) — Tenants of an Aurora apartment building have eight days to vacate their units.

It’s a heated issue. The apartment management at 1568 Nome St. claims it is happening because of Venezuelan gang crimes, while the city of Aurora says it’s because of longstanding unresolved code violations.

A spokesperson from the city said instead of addressing the documented code violations, property owner CBZ Management has hired a team of attorneys and a public relations firm to fight the city on its decision.

“First off, we have a signoff from the city, so therefore I don’t know what the city is talking about as it relates to violations because it’s been signed off,” an investor in the property said.
