The list sent to me in September shows the following names and parties for positions at City of Aurora ballot. Web sites are included for candidates that flyers have been sent:
I should have defined "(L)" as Libertarian. I think the (D) and the (R) are self-explanatory. My personal observation is that the libertarians may be more fiscally conservative than many republicans.
I am glad the web addresses are helpful. If someone has information such as web addresses, news articles or opinion pieces, or video for any of the Aurora candidates, please add them here in the comments.
If anyone has helpful links to the ballot initiatives, please share.

For what it is worth from robo-calls received this morning:
Colorado Senator Nancy Spence (District 27) call supporting Tom Coker.
Brad Pierce is supported by Aurora Sentinel. [note that this is a re-election campaign]
Perhaps someone else will know how to answer your question. That position is not the impression I have of the "group" but I recommend looking at the web site for information and their history which dates back to the early 1970s here in Colorado:
My observation is that there are large numbers of libertarian influenced people associated with the "tea party" or conservative groups. Many people who consider themselves "republican" or "independent" may not be aware of how closely aligned their personal philosophy is to the libertarians. I just saw a statistic that perhaps 16 percent of the population may have a "libertarian" philosophy.
The word "liberal" and its meaning has found numerous definitions over the years since the founding of the country. It seems like a word that can be misinterpreted at times.

I would like to recommend the book by Kevin Miller, who is with the Centennial Institute in Lakewood, titled Freedom Nationally, Virtue Locally, or Socialism. It is a short book and good read that seems fitting to comment about here.
Add Paul Tauer to the robo-calls and he is supporting Steve Hogan.
Check out this web page with photos of the Republican candidates in various races in Arapahoe County communities:

The following list for various municipal elections and school districts is compiled from several sources. I am not sure how accurate it is, but maybe it will help.
