Dear XXX I am a San Francisco resident (add: in District xx for your district) As you know, the San Francisco Department of Animal Care and Control (SF/ACC) is looking for a new director. This is an incredible opportunity to make SF/ACC a cornerstone shelter for San Francisco under new leadership. I want San Francisco to regain its role as a national leader in animal welfare. I strongly believe in SF/ACC’s mission of: “delivery of effective, courteous, and responsive animal care and control services to the residents of San Francisco.” In order to accomplish this mission with new leadership, we urge the City of San Francisco to: 1. Conduct a national search for the best possible new shelter director who is focused on both lifesaving and public safety. 2. Expand community support for SF/ACC by organizing a community panel of animal welfare stakeholders to meet potential candidates. I also highly discourage the privatization of SF/ACC. I would like to see a new Director at SF/ACC with the following qualities: A love of animals. A passion for saving lives. Strong focus on public safety. Hard working. Effective. Determined. Willing to take risks. Solution oriented. Accountable. Someone who demands excellence. Who leads by example. Some who can achieve a lot of things with limited resources. But more than all of that, someone who has imagination. Sincerely YOUR NAME District xx (if applicable) San Francisco Board of Supervisors sfbos.org/
