NEWS BRIEF
Sentinel Colorado reports that Aurora City Council voted 8-2 to oppose Proposition 132, a statewide ballot measure addressing fentanyl possession penalties. The resolution asks residents to vote against the measure.
According to the report, if voters approve the proposition in November, possession of any quantity of fentanyl could bring a felony conviction and a mandatory prison sentence of eight to 32 years. The measure includes potential court-ordered treatment for some low-level offenders. Two councilmembers voted against the opposition resolution.
What to know
Aurora’s resolution does not decide the statewide measure. Proposition 132 would go before Colorado voters in November, and its sentencing provisions would apply only if voters approve it.
