LOVELAND, Colo. (KDVR) — The Larimer County Sheriff’s office says it is investigating a dispute that occurred at a park in Loveland on March 29.

The Larimer County Sheriff’s office also told FOX31 that the Loveland Police Department requested the county investigate what happened in that video to avoid a conflict of interest.

The investigation is focusing on a video showing a confrontation between Loveland City Councilor Erin Black and the man who posted it, Dillon Kaiser.

Who asked for the investigation is not clear. The conversation centered on party lines — Kaiser is a Republican.

Kaiser says he’s had problems with Black before.

Because of the video, the council passed a motion Tuesday night asking that Black resign and that she no longer attend meetings in person.

Council member Andrea Samson said Black’s presence at the meeting caused problems.

“I had dozens of people reach out to me who said, what happens if I disagree now with counselor Black? What happens if I say something that she doesn’t like? Is she gonna come after me?” Samson told FOX31.

Ward I Councilman Patrick McFall said that Black’s response and actions on Tuesday night “demonstrate a disregard” for the principles of respect, accountability and integrity.

“Rather than acknowledging the harm caused by her and her supporters, she has shown no remorse and continues to justify her behavior through a narrow and self-serving perspective,” McFall said. “The people of Loveland deserve better.”

Black has faced opposition before.  The city’s police chief filed a complaint against her in an unrelated matter.

FOX31 reached out to Black but we have not received a response.

During the City Council meeting Tuesday night, Black said that some people may find her actions offensive and that she found targeting and stalking to be offensive.

The mayor said Black was still a voting member of the council.

But seven members also passed a motion asking that she resign.

“It distracts from the reputation of the council. It distracts from our ability to talk with people and represent people and come across like we’re honoring them as well as trying to represent the city. So it is a tarnish on our integrity. It hurts the trust,” Ward III Loveland City Councilor Steven Olson said.

It’s not clear if Black will show up in person at future council meetings.

The city attorney told FOX31 the council cannot remove her but citizens could ask for a recall election. The Larimer sheriff did not say how long the investigation of the video would take to complete.

“It is now up to the voters in her ward to decide whether they will hold her accountable through a recall election. More broadly, all Loveland residents must recognize the importance of participating in local elections if they want meaningful change on the council,” McFall commented. “The continued pattern of aggressive verbal attacks and, in this case, what I believe to be harassment, discourages good citizens from stepping up to serve. If we want a council that truly represents the best interests of our community, we must foster an environment where respectful discourse prevails over intimidation tactics.

“Now is the time for Loveland to take a stand for responsible leadership,” he concluded.
