Main Street Plaza timeline
Nov. 16, 1999 The ACLU files suit against the sale saying the speech restrictions on a public-access easement violate the First Amendment.
Oct. 9, 2002 The 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver sides with the ACLU and forbids the city from allowing the church to enforce free-speech limitations on the plaza.
Dec. 16, 2002 Mayor Rocky Anderson offers a solution to the divisive issue: the city will give up its easement in exchange for 2.1 acres of church-owned land in Glendale, where a community center is to be built.
June 10, 2003 The City Council approves Anderson's community center deal.
Aug. 7, 2003 The ACLU files a second suit alleging the city's deal violates the establishment clause of the U.S. Constitution, which calls for separation between church and state.
May 3, 2004 U.S. District Court Judge Dale A. Kimball dismisses the ACLU's second plaza suit. The ACLU says an appeal is likely.
