The Beverly Hills 9/11 Memorial Garden was once again the backdrop for an early morning ceremony commemorating the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. Beverly Hills Mayor Lester Friedman, Vice Mayor Sharona Nazarian and members of the City Council attended, along with Beverly Hills Fire Chief Gregory Barton, Police Chief Mark Stainbrook, members of their respective departments and residents. In addition to the poignant ceremony, Jewish National Fund honored the police and fire departments for everything they have done to protect the community. Barton and Stainbrook were each presented with a plaque depicting the 9/11 Memorial outside of Jerusalem, built by JNF.
