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 70 and low of 49 degrees. Sunny during the morning, overcast for the afternoon and evening, clear overnight.
Did they announce if they’re doing the 1 mile run down Michigan avenue?
If this mileage passes, has the City of Saline, for example, committed to reduce their millage by 2.0 that they no longer
need to send to the Fire Department?
It should be stated that this mileage is going to raise the taxes for many homes by $800 per year (based on a $250K SEV). There has been no commitment that the 2.0 mil that currently exists will be replaced even though it is alluded to. That is a huge increase.
The Fire Dept. likely does have unmet needs. We have been in meetings where the Fire Chief has spoken and our impression has been that he is not fully transparent, massaging information to present a case to achieve what he wants rather than solidly and transparently defining reality and options.
