"Let's get to work at making our streets safe, let's get to work at stopping the criminals from terrorizing our neighborhoods," Ciaravino said. "That's what I'm going to continue to do, is to work with the police, make sure from a city council perspective that we're providing the resources that the police need, and making sure we're taking a holistic approach to this.
