The Denver City Council on Monday approved a $6 million contract for a group to manage the distribution of food and provide services for immigrants participating in the city’s work program.
The vote on the $6 million contract with Haven of Hope was postponed in late August and again last week after councilmembers grilled the Johnston administration and one member said it resulted in more questions than answers.
Those questions seemed to have been answered on Monday, when 12 councilmembers voted in favor of the contract, though Councilmember Serena Gonzales-Gutierrez pressed about the program’s sustainability.
