SFPUC endorses City Attorney Dennis Herrera as next S.F. water, power and sewer chief
Mayor London Breed could announce a new city attorney within weeks, following the San Francisco Public Utility Commission’s Wednesday decision to formally recommend the city’s top lawyer, Dennis Herrera, as the agency’s next general manager. Breed nominated Herrera to the position in April, months after the FBI charged the previous general manager, Harlan Kelly, with allegedly accepting bribes from a city contractor and permit consultant. Kelly resigned in November.
