City to invite President for Greene reinterment in Savannah
Savannah city council plans to invite the president and his cabinet to the November reinterment of General Nathaniel Greene during the state DAR convention. The council would fund funeral and entertainment costs, estimated at 32,000 to 33,000, unless an injunction blocks excess appropriations. Mayor Myers says the city will cover any required funds, with councilors ready to back the plan if needed. The decision hinges on the president’s acceptance, after a divided committee vote.
