"We remember" A timeline of the
morning of 9/11/01
20 Anniversary On the morning of September 11, 2001, 19 ter-
th
of 9/11/01 rorists hijacked four commercial airplanes bound for
California. The planes departed from airports in Bos-
ton; Newark, NJ; and Washington, D.C. September
11 would become an infamous date in American and
world history, and the events of that day would for-
ever change the world. As the world commemorates
the 20th anniversary of 9/11, the following timeline,
courtesy of the National September 11 Memorial
& Museum, can help people fully understand how
events unfolded on that late-summer morning two
decades ago.
• 5:45 a.m.: Two of the hijackers pass through se-
curity at Portland International Airport in Maine. The
men will take a short flight to Boston Logan Interna-
tional Airport, where they will join three other hijack-
ers and board American Airlines Flight 11.
• 6:00 a.m: Two of the hijacked planes, American
Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175, will
eventually crash into the North and South Towers of
the World Trade Center complex in New York City.
The day was a significant one on the New York City
political calendar, as polling stations opened at 6 a.m.
for primary elections.
• 7:59 a.m.: American Airlines Flight 11 takes off
from Boston with 11 crew members, 76 passengers
and five hijackers on board. The plane, which will
eventually crash into the North tower at the World
Trade Center, is filled with more than 76,000 pounds
of fuel.
• 8:15 a.m.: United Airlines Flight 175 takes off
from Boston with nine crew members, 51 passengers,
and five hijackers on board. This flight also is loaded
with 76,000 pounds of fuel.
• 8:19 a.m.: American Airlines ground personnel
are alerted by flight attendant Betty Ann Ong that
Flight 11 is being hijacked. This call lasts roughly 25
minutes and Ong reports that the cockpit is unreach-
able. In the moments before Ong’s call, one of the
hijackers stabbed Daniel M. Lewin, who was sitting
in front of him in first class. Lewin is likely the first
person killed in the 9/11 attacks.
• 8:20 a.m.: American Airlines Flight 77 takes off
from Washington Dulles International Airport. The
flight has 49,900 pounds of fuel and is carrying six
crew members, 53 passengers and five hijackers.
• 8:21 a.m.: The transponder on Flight 11 is turned
off. This device is meant to allow air traffic control-
lers to identify and monitor the flight path of a plane.
• 8:24 a.m.: One of the hijackers of Flight 11 un-
wittingly broadcasts a message to air traffic control-
lers alerting them to the attacks. The hijacker was at-
tempting to communicate with passengers and crew
within the cabin.
• 8:30 a.m.: Around this time, roughly 80 people
have already begun gathering on the 106th floor of
the North Tower of the World Trade Center for a fi-
nancial technology conference. The conference is
one of many events on the Trade Center schedule that
day.
• 8:37 a.m.: The Boston Air Traffic Control Center
alerts the military that a hijacking is under way.
• 8:42 a.m.: United Airlines Flight 93 takes off
from Newark International Airport. The flight was
due to take off at roughly the same time as the other
hijacked planes, but was delayed due to routine traf-
fic. Seven crew members, 33 passengers and four hi-
jackers are on board. The flight is filled with 48,700
pounds of fuel.

Ohio Revised Code allows minimal situations where open
burning is legal. The burning of building materials, furnishings,
garbage, plastics or food containers are just a few of a large
list of items that are never legal to burn. The burning of any
of these items is also illegal if burned in barrels, fireplaces or
outdoor boilers. In response to an increase in residents who are
burning on their property, the fire department will begin greater
enforcement of the open burning laws. Open burning violations
can result in penalties. For more information, please call the fire
department at (440) 926-2166.
Why shouldn’t vehicles park in cul-de-sacs? If there is an
emergency, vehicles parked in a cul-de-sac could prevent emer-
gency vehicles from reaching a property. Safety first!
Waterways - Please ensure waterways (e.g., ditches, creeks,
etc.) on your property are not blocked by debris (natural or oth-
erwise). It is important that water can flow. Blockages on one
