In accordance with the proclamation, all flags at City of Dallas facilities will be lowered to half-staff. City of Dallas employees are encouraged to “cherish the memory of the thousands of innocent victims lost, extend our thoughts and prayers to their families, and honor the heroic men and women who risked and sacrificed their lives so others might survive.”
