Peskin Apology Adds to Already Dramatic Board of Supervisors Meeting as Tensions Mount With Mayor
Supervisor Aaron Peskin appeared at his first public meeting Tuesday afternoon since announcing last week that he would be seeking professional treatment for alcohol abuse. And in addition to his emotional apology, the Board of Supervisors meeting featured a tense exchange of words between Board President Shamann Walton and Mayor London Breed over who bullies who more at City Hall.
SF s Board of Supervisors has a long history of outsized personalities and theatrical exchanges many of us still remember former Supervisor Chris Daly declaring It s on like Donkey Kong in the days leading up to Ed Lee becoming mayor. And lately a lot of the drama has come from the mouth of Supervisor Aaron Peskin, a veteran of the board who s serving his 39th or 40th year as supervisor at this point. (Actually it s his 13th, non-consecutive.)
