Denver City Council delays spending $8 million on homeless hotel

By Alexander Edwards | Denver Gazette

The Denver City Council has requested a delay in voting for funding for a shelter run by the Salvation Army.

The Tamarac Family Shelter, located at 7525 E. Hampden Ave. in a repurposed Embassy Suites hotel building, was set to receive an $8 million contract with the city.

That is almost three-fourths of the amount invoiced to the city by the Salvation Army last year. The $8 million contract is only good for one year and expires on Dec. 31, 2024.
