Mayor’s nominee Mickey Callahan sent to full Board for confirmation as Human Resources director
Summary
The committee voted to forward Mayor Newsom’s nominee, Mickey Callahan, to the full San Francisco Board of Supervisors with a recommendation after Callahan described her labor-relations and mediation background and members expressed support.
Mickey Callahan, the mayor’s nominee for Human Resources director, addressed the committee and the panel voted to forward her confirmation to the full Board of Supervisors with a recommendation.
Callahan told supervisors she has worked two years in the Department of Human Resources as employee relations director and previously ran the State Mediation and Conciliation Service, which mediates labor disputes. She also said prior experience as a union representative gives her "a well rounded" problem-solving approach she would bring "beyond simply labor relations."
A committee member praised Callahan’s qualifications and moved to send the confirmation to the full Board with recommendation. During the public-comment period a resident spoke in support of the mayor’s choice. No formal vote tally was recorded in the committee transcript; the committee concluded it would forward the item for Board consideration.
The nomination will next appear on the full Board agenda for a confirmation vote.
