San Francisco Mayor Mark Farrell is opening his doors at City Hall to allow a select group of residents to have some face time.
His office is launching “Open Door Chats,” which will give residents a 10-minute appointment with the mayor on the first and third Friday of the month from 8:30 a.m. to noon. The first sit-down with the mayor is on Friday.
A lottery process will determine who will meet with the mayor, and residents chosen can decide on the preferred time, according to the Mayor’s Office.
Farrell said in a statement:
“I believe the Mayor’s Office should be transparent, open and accessible to all San Francisco residents.”
Farrell added:
“During my time as mayor, I want to get to the heart of the issues and I want my work to be guided by what is impacting the lives of our residents on a day-to-day basis.”
Residents can sign up at http://bit.ly/mayorfarrell, and answer questions on what topic they would like to speak with Farrell about, if they submitted a 311 complaint about the issue, and if any city departments had resolved the issue.
