A contentious, emergency hearing was held Tuesday to examine the mayor of San Francisco's request for appointees to sign undated letters of resignation before their appointments.
Preston is head of the San Francisco Government Audit And Oversight Committee Meeting, which held the hearing Tuesday morning at City Hall. Preston said the mayor’s office turned over paperwork when they inquired about the practice. They found out of roughly 400 appointments, 48 people were asked to sign the letters with no explanation as to why they were singled out.
Elsbernd acknowledged the concerns that the practice could create the perception of a lack of transparency, but said factually that never was the case. He said requesting signed undated resignation letters was to prevent a holdup of removing someone who refused to resigned or went "AWOL." The letters were reserved for the most dire situations of inappropriate behavior or dereliction of duty.
