Changes on the Aurora City Council as our newest members are sworn in following last month’s election. Four new faces join the dais, along with a returning, incumbent.  Plus, the Mayor calls for a special study session on youth violence in our city to look for ways to try to solve it;  two huge honors for Aurora as we rank number one in the state for immigrant integration and our ACAD is now recognized as a Colorado Creative Arts District. We also take a look back at the sights and sounds from this year’s Aurora holiday tree lighting ceremony. Those stories, and so much more, this week on Aurora Now.
