Spartanburg fire chief placed on leave amid review of PPP loan

City of Spartanburg Fire Chief Pierre Brewton has been placed on paid administrative leave pending a third-party review into questions regarding a business he owns apart from his job with the city. Assistant Chief Will Smart will serve as the interim fire chief, according to an email from City Manager Chris Story to the fire department staff. Brewton, who grew up in Spartanburg, has served as the city's fire chief since 2024 . Before that, he served as the fire chief for Albemarle, North Carolina. During that period, he received a COVID-era Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan from the federal government. Story said the third-party review concerns Brewton's handling of the loan. "We want to work through this process as quickly as possible," he added. A spokesperson with the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) confirmed that the agency is looking into the situation. "SLED is aware of allegations involving the Spartanburg Fire Chief Pierre Brewton’s PPP loan and is reviewing tips provided to SLED on the matter at this time," the agency representative said. Brewton first worked for the City of Spartanburg in 1988. He joined the fire department staff in 1994. In a 2024 Herald-Journal article , he

Habitat for Humanity moves closer to building homes in Kings Mountain

Habitat for Humanity in Cleveland County is one step closer to building homes in Kings Mountain. The Kings Mountain City Council voted at its October meeting to move forward with plans to convey several parcels of land at the north end of Myers Street to the Kings Mountain Redevelopment Commission, which will then transfer the property to the nonprofit. The developed homes will be the first in Kings Mountain for Habitat for Humanity. The process began in 2024, when the city identified the four parcels as a potential site for Habitat for Humanity homes. Since then, the city has been working to determine how to legally convey the property to the organization. In June, the city attempted to transfer the land through an upset bid process, but those plans were scrapped after Sundown Automotives submitted an unexpected bid of $3,000. More: Kings Mountain seeks new path for Habitat for Humanity land sale Henry Earl, assistant city manager, presented a new proposal to council, saying the process had been a long time coming.
