The San Francsico Board of Supervisors passed an ordinance on Tuesday that prohibits the mayor or other city heads from demanding undated letters of resignation from their appointed commissioners, per Mayor London Breed's letter 'scandal' last year.
The ordinance, which was approved 8-2, clearly states that requiring resignation letters is against city policy, and that the decision to resign cannot be decided by an appointing authority, like the Board of Supervisors, the mayor, the district attorney or any other city official. The ordinance does not bar an authority from removing a commissioner.
An October hearing at a Government Audit and Oversight Committee meeting revealed that dozens of other mayoral appointees were asked to submit resignation letters as well. Backing Preston on Tuesday was supervisors Myrna Melgar, Aaron Peskin, Hillary Ronen, Ahsha Safai, Matt Dorsey, Connie Chan and Joel Engardio.
"To start off with being asked to resign if something were to go wrong, I think really sets the wrong tone," said Safai.
