ACLU of Colorado sues Boulder, police cheif over camping ban.
filed a lawsuit on behalf of three homeless plaintiffs, two housed residents of Boulder and one organization, charging that the city's camping ban and tent ban ordinances violate the Colorado Constitution. The lawsuit names the City of Boulder and Maris Herold, the Boulder police chief, as defendants.
"I would like to see the criminalization of our lifestyle stopped. It makes a really difficult situation even more difficult, and there’s no reason for it," explains 46-year-old Jeni Shurley, who has been homeless on and off since 1996. Shurley signed onto the lawsuit after being ticketed in December 2021 for sleeping in a"bike-drawn tiny home." During one of her interactions withofficers that month, Shurley was told to"get out of Boulder," the lawsuit claims.
