( CNN ) -- Ten years after 113 people died when a Concorde jet crashed into a hotel outside Paris , local officials say the country 's government has not done enough to protect people living near the airport . `` Seventy-five percent of air accidents have happened in taking off or landing in densely populated areas , '' Gonesse Mayor Jean-Pierre Blazy said in a statement . The town of Gonesse , located north of Paris , was scheduled to hold a memorial service Sunday to honor the 113 victims who died when the Concorde jet crashed there on July 25 , 2000 . A court is expected to rule in a manslaughter case related to the crash in December , a statement from Gonesse 's government said . `` Despite 10 years of investigation and four months of trial , all the responsibility does not seem to have been established , '' the statement said . French investigators said a small titanium strip that was loose caused the crash . It had fallen from a Continental Airlines plane on the runway minutes earlier . The crash , coupled with rising costs and a slump in demand , eventually led to Concorde 's retirement in 2003 .
Mayor says public safety remains a priority for his government . The town of Paris is holding a memorial for the victims . A verdict is expected in a manslaughter case related to the crash in France .
