DENVER — Hours before the emergency shelter at the Denver Coliseum opened Sunday, people were out waiting in the cold.
Between the shelter at the coliseum and the ballroom at the old Best Western hotel on Quebec Street, 400 people could get out of the cold. They did not reach capacity on Saturday night. "We have a usual discharge process 14 days for individuals, 37 days for families. During the cold weather while that plan is activated, no discharges. So we weren't discharging anyone over that three day period," Jon Ewing with Denver Human Services said."If you've timed out of that you needed a place to stay, go to the coliseum or the Best Western and take advantage of that.
