DENVER - Denver City Council is considering increasing the cap on the amount of money it can spend on security services. The security budget covers services to all municipal buildings across the city including Denver-run homeless and immigrant shelters."In January, we had near 5,000 people in shelter.
"It was pretty bad because anybody could come in and like knock on your door or try to just knock it out, knock it down," said Alejandro Castandea who has lived at the shelter off Quebec for several months,"Since they have the security, that's pretty good. Nobody can go in there. You know? If you're not from this building, you can't go in there."
They are asking to increase the contract capacity with Advanced Professional Security- Colorado, LLC and Denver Metro Protective Services from $400,000 respectively to $3.4 million each.
