Board rejects mayor’s nomination to Police Commission after rules committee concerns
Summary
The Board of Supervisors voted 8–3 on July 10, 2018, to reject Mayor’s nomination of Joseph Marshall for reappointment to the San Francisco Police Commission after a Rules Committee review. The motion to reject originated on the floor and passed on a roll-call vote.
The San Francisco Board of Supervisors on July 10 rejected the mayor’s nomination to reappoint Joseph Marshall to the Police Commission, approving a motion to reject the nomination by an 8–3 roll-call vote.
Supervisor Sandra Fewer moved to reject the nomination after the Rules Committee’s earlier consideration; Supervisor Aaron Peskin seconded the motion on the floor. Fewer said she was compelled to move after watching the Rules Committee meeting. The board first voted on a motion to amend and reject the nomination and, after that motion carried, took a final roll-call vote on the rejection.
The clerk recorded an 8–3 vote rejecting the nomination. The meeting minutes record the motion to amend and the final vote; the clerk’s roll call furnished the formal tally and the item was recorded as rejected. No formal substitute nominee was announced on the record during the meeting.
Because this action was an appointment vote, the rejection is effective immediately under the city’s appointment procedures. The clerk recorded the formal votes in the public minutes.
