The City of Riverside held a 9/11 Remembrance ceremony at the City Council Chambers. Members of the city government, Fire and Police Departments, and the public attended to pay respect to the victims of the attacks twenty-three years ago. The ceremony was simple and was centered on the charge to never forget 9/11/2001. It was emphasized that we should never forget the conditions that led to complacency that allowed the attacks to occur and never forget the unity that came to follow.
