Committee approves two nominations and forwards them to the full Board

The Rules Committee on Sept. 12 approved two personnel matters and sent both nominations to the full Board with positive recommendations.

Andre Charles Torrey, an asset-planning staffer with city experience in youth development programs, presented for a vacant seat on the Children's Youth and Their Families Oversight Advisory Committee; with no public objection the committee voted to forward his nomination to the full Board.

Later in the meeting, David Martin, chancellor of City College of San Francisco and a CPA, joined remotely to accept nomination by Treasurer José Cisneros to a seat on the Treasury Oversight Committee. Chair Peskin moved technical amendments to the long title (removing the word "rejecting") and added a residency-waiver motion; both amendments and the recommendation to forward the nomination were approved by the committee.

Both items will be considered by the full Board at its next meeting.
