AURORA, Colo. -- Aurora’s Planning and Zoning Commission gave unanimous approval Wednesday to a plan to expand an immigrant detention facility.
The Florida-based Geo Company petitioned to add more than 200,000 square feet and 1,100 more beds on a 17-acre site near its existing facility at 30th Avenue and Peoria Street in Aurora.
Currently with 400 beds, the private company owns and manages the Aurora ICE Processing Center under a contract with Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
The 6-0 vote came after opponents carried signs and rallied outside the Aurora Municipal Center.
Members of the Colorado Immigrant Rights Coalition chanted, “people not profits, justice not abuse,â€"Distrust and caution are the parents of security."
