DENVER – Mayor Mike Johnston and city councilmembers reached a compromise Monday to decide how much the city will spend next year to keep people in their homes hours after it was revealed Denver had broken a decade-old record in the number of evictions filed so far in 2023.
Initially, Johnston wanted to spend $15.6 million on emergency rental assistance, calling it a “significant expansion” of what the city normally spends – despite a drop in federal funding. Several councilmembers, however, pushed back and argued more money needed to be injected into the budget to prevent people in a tough spot from becoming unhoused.
Denver City Councilwoman Sarah Parady, who co-sponsored the amendment, told Denver7 that the $14.7 million figure was calculated based off the expected level of evictions filings the city would see in 2024.
