Committee confirms two appointments: Small Business Commission and Park advisory committee reappointment
Summary
The Rules Committee approved two appointments by unanimous consent: Miriam Zusanis to the Small Business Commission and Stefan Franz’s reappointment to the Park and Recreation Open Space Advisory Committee; both were supported by public testimony and supervisors.
The San Francisco Board of Supervisors Rules Committee on Nov. 12 confirmed two appointments by unanimous consent.
Miriam Zusanis (name appears in the committee record with variant spellings) addressed the committee about her family’s long-running small business in South of Market and her work with local business associations and city-sponsored programs. Multiple speakers, including neighbors, business association leaders and family members, testified in favor of her appointment to the Small Business Commission, citing experience with corner-store operations, healthy-retail initiatives and energy-efficiency work. Supervisor Katie Tang and Supervisor Malia Cohen spoke in support and the committee took the appointment without objection.
The committee also reappointed Stefan Franz to the Park and Recreation Open Space Advisory Committee (ProSAC). Franz described five years on the advisory body, service as first vice chair and his role representing Lafayette Park and engagement with new-park openings and maintenance concerns. Several ProSAC members and neighborhood advocates testified in favor of Franz’s reappointment, citing his institutional knowledge and advocacy on capital-to-operations transitions. The committee confirmed the reappointment without recorded roll call.
