The San Francisco Board of Appeals on March 21 publicly thanked Executive Director Cynthia Goldstein for nearly 10 years leading the board and announced a transition to Julie Rosenberg.
Goldstein, who has served the city for roughly three decades, was lauded by commissioners, department staff and members of the public. "You've been the consummate professional," said Carla Short, who spoke during general public comment. Mayor Mark Farrell read a proclamation declaring March 21 "Cynthia Goldstein Day" in the City and County of San Francisco.
Board President Frank Fung said the board has relied on Goldstein's institutional knowledge and preparation. Commissioners and department representatives — including Planning and Public Works staff who work frequently with the board — praised her accessibility and responsiveness.
