"I would like to share with you the fact that even though our local community and California may be going through some tough economic times, we at the San José Police Department are committed to ensuring that we provide you with the best police services possible. Indeed, we recognize that we have become one of the Safest Big Cities in America because of the collaborative, trusting relationship we have established with the many diverse communities and cultures that make up this great city of ours. We now turn to the San José Police Foundation and its donors to assist us in furthering these efforts."
