Summary
Houston Mayor Pro Tem Martha Castex Tatum and Missouri City’s mayor offered public praise for Troy Finner’s commitment to community policing and partnerships during his swearing-in ceremony.
Martha Castex Tatum, Houston’s mayor pro tem, told the audience she has seen Chief Troy Finner’s leadership up close and said he ‘‘understands policing is not just about enforcement. It's about relationship. It's about trust.'’ She described his approach to community policing as a substantive commitment rather than a slogan.
