Breadth of opposition: The mayor of Sheridan is among the officials in this land use meeting at a Cherry Hills Village mansion. All are opposed to land use. As Sheridan mayor points out, you couldn’t find two more different municipalities. 
Littleton Mayor Kyle Schlacter quips that the governor has truly brought people together. As one official asks if anything can be done to win support, some in the crowd cry “no!”
New: Sen. @JeffBridges says the committee vote on land use bill is “questionable,” with Sen. @Dylan_RobertsCO as swing vote, and “even worse” on the Senate floor. Says in its current state he would not bet on passage. He is a no. #copolitics
Btw there are probably 150 people here. Hosts expected 30.
One audience member says there is no housing crisis and the economy will work it out automatically. Says Polis will bring “ruination on his native Colorado.”
Most of the rest of the commentary was about local control and a desire to keep things the same. Lots of anti-developer sentiment. Also one Denverite drove down and stood up to forcefully declare that there is a housing crisis and we should build more housing.
To answer a good question, the “breadth of opposition” in the first tweet is about contrast between Sheridan and CHV. An example of how a range of local electeds are pressuring their state senators.
Of course, some support it too — Boulder, Lafayette come to mind.
