Aurora Sentinel: Aurora City Council voted to suspend in-person public comment and move all future meetings to a virtual format until the civil court case involving the fatal police shooting of Kilyn Lewis is resolved.
“It’s in the court’s hands now, and I would like to suspend this to be virtual until we have an official ruling from a court as to whether or not the city is liable in any way, shape or form for the death of Kylin Lewis,” Councilmember Danielle Jurisky said in her motion. “If that takes two years, it takes two years.”
The City Council approved Jurinsky’s motion to preclude in-person meetings and end the ability of the public to address the council on non-agenda items. The change was opposed by councilmembers Crystal Murillo, Ruben Medina, and Alison Coombs.
