Any ordinance in a Colorado home rule jurisdiction supercedes state law; otherwise, state law applies. Webb would have a Denver non-CC ordinance passed in a New York minute. His antics are just posturing, possibly for a larger audience. As one of the three most powerful 'rats in the state, the Colorado Supreme Court is in his pocket, and would buy into the legislative intent argument.
In any case, it appears further machinations over a new CC law is now moot. I just received the following eMail. Note my added emphasis.
I received word a few minutes ago that HB 1410, after days of postponements, was tabled in the Senate Appropriations committee.
This does not "kill" the bill, but one could infer that the negotiations to save the bill by adding home rule amendments failed and that the bill had neither enough support to pass it nor enough opponents to kill it, so it will languish in committee until the Legislature adjourns tomorrow.
However, as a tabled bill, it could spring to life like the Phoenix without notice, so it ain't over til it's over when the gavel falls in the Senate tomorrow night.
