Removal work on a historic monument damaged by a lightning strike is set to begin. The monument's vertical panels will be removed first, followed by possible relocation of its base to a company for safekeeping. A cost estimate and restoration plan are expected to be developed soon.

The removal was initially scheduled for the previous week but was postponed due to a personal issue with the contractor. The monument suffered damage in late July during heavy storms.

Further details on the removal and restoration process can be found through the original source, which provides more information on the monument and the events surrounding its damage.
