SPUR — A cross at a city park has drawn challenges from an organization claiming its public location is unconstitutional. The Freedom from Religion Foundation claims it is still awaiting a response from Spur’s city management about the display. The foundation received a complaint about the cross, then sent a letter to City Hall asking officials to take it down or move it to a private location.
