A state agency that planned to house some sex offenders in a Northglenn neighborhood — near an elementary school and a children’s playground — will no longer do so after neighbors and public officials rose up in loud opposition. The Colorado Department of Human Services will move forward with a 32-bed mental health transitional living facility at 11255 and 11275 Grant Drive but agreed late last week to bar registered sex offenders from residing there, according to an announcement by the north suburban city. The prospect of people with convictions for sex crimes living at the home brought out a large crowd in opposition at a community meeting earlier this month.
