Pel1DS}'lV811iJJ : I I am pleased to submit the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report of the City of I Pittsburgh for the year ended December 31, 1991. We believe that the enclosed data are accurate in all material respects and are reported in a manner designed to present fairly the financial position and results of I operations of the City. All disclosures necessary to enable the reader to gain an understanding of the City's financial activities, other than fixed assets, have been included. Responsibility for both the accuracy of data, and the completeness and I fairness of the presentation, including all disclosures, rests with the management of II the City. INTRODUCfION The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) is presented in three sectiODS: I Introductory, Financial and Statistical. The Introductory Section includes this letter, the City's organization chart, and a list of principal officials. The Financial Section I consists of the independent certified public accountants' report, the general PurPOSe financial statements, with the related notes, and the combining and individual fund and account group financial statements and schedules. The Statistical Section I includes financial and other pertinent data, generally presented on a multi-year basis. I. I I 1-1 I BCONOMIC CONDmON AND OUTLOOK I The City of Pittsburgh is located in the southwestern part of the Commonwealth I forming the Golden Triangle where the Allegheny and Monongahela Rivers meet to create the Ohio River. The City. which is the largest of 130 municipalities in Allegheny County serves as the County Seat and covers an area of 55.5 square miles I and has a 1990 Census population of approximately 370.000. I Bco1101Dic Backgrourzd: The abundant water resources fostered a strong industrial based economy that has been the strength of Pittsburgh's past. Steel and heavy manufacturing dominated our economy and the successes of those industries were the I prime economic indicators. Steel and heavy manufacturing. while still present in our economy. no longer dictate I our economic future. In keeping with national trends. Pittsburgh has successfully shifted from an industrial to a diversified economy. This diversity is the streDgth of Pittsburgh's future. I Our Prest:Dt EcoDomy: Today. Pittsburgh is the home of leading service industries I such as high-technology. health. research. education. and finance. In addition to a sound economy. other factors such as reasonably priced housiDg. relatively low crime. and excellent cultural and recreational opportunities explain why eleven Fortune 500 I companies are headquartered in Pittsburgh. BcoDomic StIltistics : Unemployment in the Pittsburgh Primary Metropolitan I Statistical Area (PMSA) was 6.0CIJ in 1991 compared to the national average of 6.71f,. Retail sales grew by an estimated 21f, during 1991. while housing starts increased by 7.51f, for the year. Local economists are forecasting percentage I increases for these indicators in 1992. BcoDomic Outlook: Pittsburgh's economy has performed in essentially the same I manner as the national economy and is expected to keep pace with the rest of the country in its economic recovery. Unemployment is not expected to increase but rather hold steady in 1992 Ovcran. forecasts call for moderate economic growth in I 1992 Taken as a whole, the sum of all the major public/private initiatives described below I suggests a stable and growth oriented local economy.

Levine, MD, was in many ways a shooting star for the University of Pittsburgh. n past years, annual report readers have been greeted on page one with a thoughtful column by Arthur S. Levine, MD, senior vice chancellor for the health sciences and John and Gertrude Petersen Dean of the School of Medicine. However, this year is not a typical year because Dr. Levine will step down from his leadership positions, once his successor arrives in June 2020 (see below). So, in lieu of his column, the annual report leads off with the story of Dr. Levine’s tenure, Iencapsulating quite a journey for him and for the University of Pittsburgh In addition, the report is packed with news emanating from the School of Medicine and the achievements of its students and faculty. All is worthy of reflection. Anticipation n January 7, 2020, Anantha Shekhar, MD, PhD, a nationally recognized educator, researcher, and entrepreneur with major contributions in medicine and life sciences, was named senior vice chancellor for the health sciences and John and Gertrude Petersen Dean of the School of Medicine. His start date is June 2020.

As a nation, we are faced with immense challenges related to the cost and quality of clinical care, not to mention access to such care. Ironically, these challenges have grown more pronounced at a time when we have the oppor- tunity to take advantage of extraordinary leaps forward in science and medicine. Despite current challenges, we at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine are optimistic, and we remain committed to achieving transformational change in medical education, patient care, and biomedical research in a culture of humanism. As an educational and research-based institution, we also work every day to cultivate Ian environment that rewards creativity, collaboration, and innovation. As scientists, we encourage everyone to envision a world in which our civic leaders embrace the scientific method — a template for civil, disciplined, evidence-based, and sound discourse — to probe the problems that concern us all. In that spirit of shared purpose, I am pleased to highlight our recent progress on the pages of this report. I invite you to explore it and discover for yourself how the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine is constructing a compelling vision of the future every day.
