City seeks injunction to stop demolition of school building
NORTHVILLE (AP) — A Detroit area community has filed a lawsuit to halt the planned demolition of a school building.
The Detroit News reports that Northville wants Northville Public Schools, its superintendent and the board of education to enter discussions with the city’s historic commission over the fate of the former Main Street School.
The lawsuit was filed last Friday in Wayne County Circuit Court.
The school is in Northville’s Historic District and was built in 1937. The district hopes to sell the property for $1.3 million.
Superintendent Mary Kay Gallagher said proceeds would go into its general fund.
Northville City Manager Pat Sullivan said the city “is not taking sides” and wants the school district to defer to the historic commission about the proposed demolition.
Retired justice to speak at Virginia law school
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) — Retired U.S. Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy will speak about his legacy on the high court at the University of Virginia School of Law this week.
Kennedy will be interviewed by financier-philanthropist David Rubenstein Friday during an inaugural event for the new Karsh Center for Law and Democracy at the law school.
The interview will be recorded for national broadcast on PBS stations. It will also air as a stand-alone episode of “The David Rubenstein Show,” a Bloomberg series focused on conversations about leadership.
The 82-year-old Kennedy announced his retirement at the end of the Supreme Court’s last term. He served on the court for 30 years.
Church visited by accused shooter allows armed parishioners
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Some parishioners will now carry weapons into a historically black Kentucky church visited by a white gunman before police said he killed two black people at a grocery store.
The First Baptist Church of Jeffersontown has asked church members with law enforcement or security backgrounds to carry guns to services and Bible studies. So far, seven parishioners have been identified to take on this responsibility.
WKYT-TV reports the Rev. Kevin Nelson tells WDRB-TV the church also has increased security in other ways.
Gregory Bush is charged with first-degree murder in the slayings at a Louisville-area Kroger last month. Police say he was seen on surveillance video trying to enter the church minutes before the attack. Police Chief Sam Rogers told the congregation that he believes the shooting was racially motivated.
