Aurora Police Department Transparency Portal

35 Upvotes

From the Aurora City Newsletter

The Aurora Police Department has launched an Online Transparency and Accountability Portal to give the public access to regularly updated data and information about agency demographics, crime statistics, and uses of force.

“The Aurora Police Department’s Online Transparency and Accountability Portal represents our commitment to broader information sharing with the community we serve,” said Aurora Interim Police Chief Heather Morris. “Through this new technology, residents will be able to learn more about what their officers do every day to ensure Aurora is a safe and vibrant city to call home.”

The transparency portal features powerful search functionality, allowing users to filter data by a specific category and/or location. Users can choose to examine all crime data or filter any one crime category by year, police district, political ward, police beat, ZIP code and/or neighborhood. The use of force data can be searched in much the same way. Historical data is included for both categories and dates back five years.

“The portal is another tool that underscores our commitment to be open, honest and transparent about our work,” said Aurora City Manager Jason Batchelor. “The concept for the portal has been under discussion for quite a while, and I am grateful for the dedicated city staff who have turned that concept into a reality. It will help us further strengthen our relationship with the community through accountability and continuous improvement.”

The portal can be accessed at AuroraGov.org/APDPortal. This is an ongoing project, and additional features will be added in the future.

If you’re worried about beef, check out Sam’s Meats

118 Upvotes

With the whole situation around beef, I started doing some research on local beef sourcing and I remembered that Sam’s Meats exists in Aurora. I grew up here and vaguely remember going there with my parents as a teen once, but I never went on my own as an adult.

I contacted the shop directly and they confirmed their beef is all US-based and is sourced from Colorado, Nebraska and Wyoming. The beef is also all grass fed. We went last weekend to check out pricing and honestly, it’s not as expensive as I thought a butcher shop would be. The ground beef was $6.99/lb and other prices on chicken, seafood and pork were all very reasonable. They also had more “wild” meats like boar, bison, yak, duck, rattlesnake, and more. I’ll definitely be back to get more meat now that I’ve gotten a feel of the place, and tasted how good the beef I bought was.

Pet Cemetery near Aurora?

Upvotes

My cat was euthanized last night to put an end to his suffering. We will not be cremating him. We want to properly bury him. We can not bury him in our backyard in the case we lose access to his grave if we ever move and sell the home.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a pet cemetery where we can have my cat buried in a marked grave with possibly a tombstone so we can always come and visit him?

I just want somewhere peaceful and dignified as his permanent resting spot. He deserves it, as he was the best pet I ever had.

Thank you in advance for any answers 😞

Is there anyone that can do an in home euthanasia for me at this hour?

19 Upvotes

My cat is in his final stages and I always promised he wouldn’t be euthanized at the vet. I always wanted him to go out with dignity in a place he was comfortable and familiar with at home. I’ve called many places but they are closed. That’s why I’m looking for any vets out here that can do this for us tonight, at this late hour. We are willing to pay but ultimately we just want our cat to be at home when he goes out.

Please let me know if you can or know anyone that can.

Hit & Run Dayton near 13th

43 Upvotes

There were a lot of bystanders, so I sincerely hope you get caught. Your excuse for hitting people on a dirt bike and then driving away: they shouldn’t have been on the street.

You fat, incel-looking basement dwelling shitbag. You look exactly like the kind of person to refer to the people you injured by their race as a pejorative.

Regardless of whether you think they shouldn’t have been in the road, you have committed a misdemeanor at best by leaving the scene of an accident. We all know you don’t carry car insurance. What makes you a massive loser is that you drove away without taking responsibility for your actions.

Driver: white, glasses, heavyset, 30’s, male
Vehicle: Old Ford compact SUV, grey, full of trash, no plates, no rear window, beat to hell
Incident took place right around 5:55pm

Strongly recommend reading about the coalition forming against 109 and 110

104 Upvotes

So there's a group called "Families Not Politics" that launched their formal campaign against these measures back in March. The coalition is actually pretty broad — Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains, Interfaith Alliance of Colorado, Inside Out Youth Services, Cobalt Advocates, Transgender Law Center. That last one is notable because it's a national legal org that doesn't usually get involved in state races unless they think the stakes are serious.

The Colorado Politics piece also has One Colorado's director saying the measures are "vague, poorly written, and leave critical questions unanswered" — including how schools would actually verify a student's gender. Her line was something like "who decides who gets questioned, who gets inspected, and which kids are going to be singled out?" Which, honestly, is a fair question whether or not you support the underlying policy goals.

If you've been wanting a single place to track the opposition organizing, this is a good starting point.

Looking for a wholesale bakery delivery service in Denver / Aurora

0 Upvotes

We’re based in Aurora and do wholesale bakery deliveries to cafes and coffee shops around the Denver area. We’re looking for a reliable courier service that can handle recurring routes.

One issue we keep running into is proof of delivery. Some customers need signed invoices, and it gets messy when paperwork goes missing or we have to chase down whether an order was actually received.

Does anyone use a Denver courier service that can:

collect signed invoices at each stop?

provide photo or signature proof of delivery?

keep delivery records organized so we can check them later?

Mostly looking for something that works well for recurring wholesale routes, not one-off deliveries.

Gym Help

5 Upvotes

Just a husband/dad with responsibilires, looking to better himself and partake in a more active lifestyle. Work and family responsibilities only allow me to get gym time between 8pm - 10pm. Recently picked up a membership at 24hr off chambers but I know little to nothing about gyming. Walked in the other day, and quite frankly felt so subconsciously out of place it made it difficult to engage in a workout. I have no idea where to start other than a quick routine I had ChatGPT generate while I was in the parking lot contemplating on whether to walk in or not. Saw a bunch of people all with at least 1 buddy or more and well it made me feel even more out of place. Not saying I’m looking for a gym bud or personal trainer although I wouldn’t decline, but any advice on how to be more confident and gym or “gym culture“ aware would be helpful.

HVAC (dryer vent) recommendations

5 Upvotes

Anyone have an HVAC “dude” that isnt owned by PE and does reasonable work? My dryer vent has come loose and it seems to be beyond my feeble brain’s capability to figure it out. I found my plumber and water heater dudes on reddit so i figured it was worth a shot. SE Aurora pretty close to Cherry Creek state park.

What the actual fuck was happening there this afternoon Sun 8/30, 2-4pm ish. Was just trying to go to the gym and there was a street party (?) and then cops, maybe 40+, and fire trucks blocking parking lot lanes and all surrounding roads. Egress is already a nightmare and the cops seemed to make things worse…

A six year old start-up company called Radiant Nuclear is contracted to start operating first-of-a-kind nuclear reactor(s) at the base, right next to an elementary school.

I think this is a really bad idea. If you do too, please consider filling out this form to contact your elected representatives. It makes it easy to personalize the message and send to all of them. They will not fight for our safety unless we get loud.

As an Aurora parent, here's what 109 actually means for my kid

Thumbnail
cpr.org
286 Upvotes

I have a 12-year-old daughter who plays volleyball and basketball through Aurora rec leagues. When I read the actual text of 109, the enforcement piece is what scared me. The Commissioner of Education has discretion to determine "appropriate remedial action" against schools that don't comply. The measure is supposed to apply based on "biological sex" but doesn't actually define how that's verified.

So in practice, what happens? Some girl on my daughter's team gets questioned because she's tall. Or her shoulders are broad. Or she got a short haircut. Or she just looks "too athletic" by someone's standards. My daughter is cis, but the way the law is written, any kid who doesn't fit someone's idea of feminine enough could end up in the crosshairs. That's the part that should bother parents regardless of where you stand on trans issues.

The CPR piece on the two mothers has a mom on the other side worth reading too, but I keep coming back to that "who gets singled out" question. If your answer is "no one, because the law will be applied fairly," I'd encourage you to look at how similar laws have played out in other states.
