Rules committee forwards nomination of Robin Abad Acubillo for Board of Appeals
Summary
The committee advanced the president's nomination of Robin Abad Acubillo to the Board of Appeals after supportive remarks about his planning experience; the item will proceed to the full board for confirmation.
President Mandelmann moved to advance the mayoral nomination of Robin Abad Acubillo to serve on the Board of Appeals for a term ending July 1, 2026. Mandelmann said Abad had 10 years in the city's planning department, led the shared-spaces program during the pandemic and served on multiple community boards and arts organizations.
Julie Lamar, executive director of the Board of Appeals, urged advancement, noting the board's vacancy since September and Abad's land-use experience. Mandelmann's motion — amended to remove language referring to rejection — passed unanimously and the committee will forward the nomination to the full board for consideration on Dec. 2, 2025.
