The Saline Police Department, Saline Area Fire Department and Mayor Brian Marl will organize a ceremony honoring the victims of the Sept. 11, 2011 terrorist tacks on America.
Mayor Marl announced the event at Monday's Saline City Council meeting.
"It'll be very similar to what we hosted in 2011. It will take place at the fire hall on Sept. 11, I believe at 11 a.m.," Marl said. "We hope to have several speakers including somebody representing police and fire, as well as our veterans' organizations."
Marl said the ceremony will be near the flagpole at Michigan and Harris Street.

The terrorist attacks (not "tacks") were 2001 (not 2011).
Sunny, with a high of 36 and low of 16 degrees. Sunny for the morning, overcast in the afternoon, clear in the evening,
I have to commend the Saline City manager and engineer for keeping their cool and for their professionalism during the three hour Mill Pond Dam town hall meeting.
I think what's insulting is that the city is bloating the numbers to bolster their case.
Logically, the dam has no practical use. Of course, it's going to cost more. Of course, there's a level of risk there. Of course, over some period of time, it's going to cost more to maintain than a stream.
Life cycle cost analysis is certainly appropriate when considering new assets, but it may not be as appropriate when evaluating existing assets.
