The City of Aurora is moving forward with plans to close The Edge at Lowry apartment complex at 12th and Dallas. Last week, a municipal judge granted an emergency order to close the complex.
The property has been deemed a criminal nuisance due to persistent violent incidents. The emergency order says the complex is an “immediate threat to public safety.”
Aurora City Attorney Pete Schulte says a full closure of the property is expected by mid-February. Schulte says the closure timeline has been in the works since early December, giving nonprofit organizations and local agencies time to prepare support for affected tenants.
