Mission Local: Meet the 31 people tasked with reshaping San Francisco’s constitution
Mayor Daniel Lurie is teaming up with Board President Rafael Mandelman to reform San Francisco’s 548-page city charter, and the pair has assembled a 31-person working group to take on the issue.
They come from a variety of backgrounds: Six are City Hall officials, including Mandelman and Lurie’s policy chief, Alicia John-Baptiste; four are from political-pressure groups that have spent heavily to lobby and campaign for different political figures; and four come from philanthropy, including [SFF CEO Fred Blackwell.]
