In 2014, the Beaumont City Council proclaimed the 2nd Saturday in October to be Public Safety Appreciation Day. You don’t have to wait until fall to honor our police and fire personnel, you can pay tribute to these brave men and women every day at the Public Safety Memorial, located in front of the Civic Center at 550 E. Sixth Street. The memorial honors deceased police and fire personnel who lived in or served the Beaumont or Cherry Valley area during their lifetime.
As a city, Beaumont respects the enormous sacrifices made by police and fire personnel. It is with pride that we inscribe on the memorial the name, rank, and agency of their loved one.
The Public Safety Memorial was dedicated on October 19, 2012.
