Virginia Beach Confederate Monument will remain in storage while the city weighs relocation options Alissa Skelton, The Virginian-Pilot
Virginia Beach’s Confederate Monument will remain in storage while the city weighs two pitches to relocate the statue.
Local Confederacy nonprofits and a Civil War battleground in the Shenandoah Valley are vying for the opportunity to take the monument off the city’s hands, but the council isn’t impressed with either option.
On Tuesday, a few members of the council said they would like to keep the statue in the area rather than relocating it 250 miles away.
But there’s one problem with that plan the local groups want the city to foot the bill for site preparation, relocation of the monument and for ongoing care and insurance of the monument.

Caddo Parish leaders are getting closer to moving the Confederate monument from in front of the Caddo Parish Courthouse. Responses to the request for proposals are due by April first. The parish is expected to award a contract by the end of April and sign that contract by mid-May and then the work can begin to relocate the monument.
It s being moved to the Pleasant Hill Battlefield Site in the Mansfield area. That is privately owned property located on State Highway 175 in south DeSoto Parish. The Caddo Parish Commission voted to spend $500,000 to move the monument.
