An emergency measure is being taken to protect the campanile in Springfield’s Court Square.

Black aluminum netting is being installed along the corners to keep the limestone exterior from popping loose.

A Wilmington construction company was hired for the temporary repair which will run the city just over $89,000.

Officials said this a temporary fix. It will last for up to five years until a more permanent repair can be done
