Denver officials identified 15 apartment complexes with a high concentration of immigrants with tenants facing eviction — the latest focal point in a city whose finances have been stretched thin to pay for the influx of people from America’s southern borders.
Officials said they are looking to create a process with the landlords to refer residents to resources for “those at risk of evictions,” Perla Gheiler, executive director of the Denver Human Rights and Community Partnerships, told Denver City Council members during an update on the city’s immigrant response on Tuesday.
“There’s a lot of evictions happening,” Gheiler told The Denver Gazette following the meeting.
