Spartanburg拆除一座历史时钟塔, 声称这违反了遗产法, A lawsuit challenges Spartanburg’s dismantling of a historic clock tower, claiming it violates heritage laws and bypassed required review.

南卡罗来纳州斯巴登堡(Spartanburg)已提出诉讼, 质疑市议会拆除摩根广场历史钟塔的决定, 认为这违反了州《遗产法》, A lawsuit has been filed in Spartanburg, South Carolina, challenging the city council’s decision to dismantle the historic clock tower in Morgan Square, arguing it violates the state’s Heritage Act and fails to protect a structure within the federally recognized Spartanburg Historic District. 原告,包括Kimberly分会和Spartanburg Clock Tower集团支持Spartanburg Clock Tower,声称该理事会无权在没有适当审查的情况下继续工作,并无视公众的意见。 The plaintiffs, including Kimberly Branch and the group Support the Spartanburg Clock Tower, claim the council lacked authority to proceed without proper review and ignored public input. 塔台的拆除工程在起诉前就开始了,尽管建筑结构仍然保持原状。 Work began on the tower’s removal before the suit was filed, though the structure remains standing. 市政府表示钟声和钟声将被保存并搬迁到新的政府大楼,全面拆除工作推迟进行。 The city says the clock and bell will be preserved and relocated to a new government building, with full demolition delayed. 州总检察长办公室先前曾声明,只有大会可以推翻《遗产法》的保护,使法律争端得不到解决。 The state Attorney General’s Office has previously stated only the General Assembly can override Heritage Act protections, leaving the legal dispute unresolved.
