An initiative that would have asked Aurora voters to approve giving more power to the mayor won’t be making it on the 2023 ballot, proponents of the campaign announced Friday morning. The effort for the proposed measure was led by Mayor Mike Coffman, who contributed $10,000 to the campaign, but after a series of challenges from opponents, the “Term Limits & Empowering the Mayor for a Better Aurora” campaign announced it couldn’t meet the deadline to get onto the ballot. “Regrettably, the citizens of Aurora will not have the opportunity to express their preference for a strong mayor form of government and further restricting term limits in the upcoming November elections, as a result of legal technicalities and opposition tactics,” spokesperson Natela Manuntseva said in a written statement. The deadline for local election issues to be certified to the county clerk is Sept.
