Confederate monument in Grenada , Mississippi , has been covered in tarps for 4 years .
The city's first Black mayor in two decades seems determined to follow through on the city's plans to relocate the monument to other public land.
A Republican lawmaker from another part of Mississippi wrote to Grenada officials saying she believes the city is violating a state law that restricts the relocation of war memorials or monuments.
A few other Confederate monuments in Mississippi have been relocated.
Grenada City Council member: "It's caused nothing but more divide in our city" Council member Lori Chavis says she supports relocating the monument but worries about a lawsuit.
"So, who's going to pay the city back for the $ 30,000 we've already expended to relocate this?”.
