Committee forwards Kaiser Permanente director Randy Wittorff to full board for San Francisco Health Authority seat
Summary
Randy Wittorff, public affairs director at Kaiser Permanente San Francisco, was recommended by the Rules Committee to the full board for appointment to the San Francisco Health Authority after describing his background in public-health programs and community benefit work.
The Rules Committee recommended that Randy Wittorff (described in testimony as public affairs director at Kaiser Permanente San Francisco) be forwarded to the full Board of Supervisors with a favorable recommendation to serve on the San Francisco Health Authority.
Wittorff told the committee he has worked in health-related fields since 1988, helped launch public campaigns and worked at agencies including the Bay Area Air Quality Management District and the U.S. EPA, and that his role overseeing community-benefit programs at Kaiser would inform his service on the authority. He said he supports universal health-care goals and would come up to speed quickly to be an asset to the board.
Supervisor members asked routine residency questions and confirmed Wittorff has an address in the city. There were no public speakers against the nomination. A supervisor moved a favorable recommendation and the committee proceeded without objection.
The recommendation will be placed before the full Board of Supervisors for its final vote.
