PITTSBURGH IS PITTSBURGH IS IN MY HEART. STANDING UNDER THE SIGN BEARING MAYOR ELECT COREY O\u2019CONNOR\u2019S NAME, CHIEF JASON LANDO LAID OUT HIS COMMITMENT TO PITTSBURGH, THE COMMUNITY WHERE HE WAS BORN AND RAISED, AND IS NOW ONCE AGAIN FOCUSED ON. THERE ARE SOME PRIORITIES. I KNOW THAT PITTSBURGH RIGHT NOW, THE DEPARTMENT, THE PBP IS IN NEED, AND THERE ARE SOME THINGS WE\u2019RE GOING TO GET WORKING ON RIGHT AWAY, LANDO SAYS. NUMBER ONE IS VIOLENT CRIME REDUCTION. AND HE SAYS ALSO AT THE TOP, COMMUNITY OUTREACH AND ENGAGEMENT, SOMETHING LANDO FOCUSED ON WHEN HE WAS COMMANDER IN ZONE FIVE. AND HE SAYS HE WILL NOW ADD CITYWIDE. HE SAYS HE WILL ALSO PUT AN EMPHASIS ON OFFICER RETENTION, RECRUITING AND SUPPORT. WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT WE\u2019RE LOOKING OUT FOR THE WELLNESS AND RESILIENCY OF THE PEOPLE THAT ARE OUT THERE EVERY DAY, TAKING CARE OF OUR RESIDENTS AND OUR VISITORS. AND SO ANOTHER BIG PRIORITY IS GOING TO BE TO MAKE SURE THAT WE BUILD A ROBUST WELLNESS PROGRAM FOR OUR POLICE OFFICERS SO THEY\u2019RE HEALTHY AND WELL EVERY DAY WHEN THEY\u2019RE OUT THERE. CHIEF LANDO SAYS HE HAS BEEN WATCHING PITTSBURGH SINCE HE LEFT FOR MARYLAND. COMING BACK OFTEN. HE WAS A FINALIST FOR THE POSITION WHEN CHIEF LARRY SCIROTTO GOT THE JOB, THEN LEFT 18 MONTHS LATER. TODAY, CHIEF LANDO ASSURED PITTSBURGHERS, IF CONFIRMED AS THEIR NEXT CHIEF, HE WILL BE STICKING AROUND. PITTSBURGH IS MY HOME AND I\u2019M COMING BACK AND I\u2019M IN IT FOR THE LONG HAUL. SO YOU HAVE MY WORD THAT I\u2019M NOT GOING ANYWHERE ANYTIME SOON. CHIEF LANDO WILL HAVE TO BE CONFIRMED BY CITY COUNCIL BEFORE HE\u2019S SWORN IN.
