Organizers of the 2022 Aurora Pride Parade said their special events permit has been revoked due to police staffing issues.
AURORA, Ill. -- The City of Aurora has revoked a special permit for the 2022 Aurora Pride Parade due to security staffing concerns.
Last month, parade organizers sparked controversy when they announced they would not allow police officers to march in the parade in full uniform or bring police vehicles. Some restaurant and shop owners in downtown Aurora are planning to increase their staffing for the pride parade. But now they're playing it by ear as organizers scramble to find a way to keep the parade as scheduled.
