Aaron Peskin Biography

Aaron Peskin is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on June 17, 1964 in Berkeley, Berkeley, United States. Aaron Dan Peskin (born June 17, 1964) is an American elected official in San Francisco, California. He serves as a member of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors representing Supervisorial District 3, and is currently Dean of the Board. He was elected in 2015, having previously served two terms in 2001–2009. In January 2005, his colleagues elected him president of the board; he served as such until the end of his term limit in 2009. He was head of the San Francisco Democratic Party Central Committee from 2008 to 2012.

In 2003, Peskin instigated an eminent domain seizure of a triangular plot of private property at 701 Lombard Street. He did so in conjunction with the Telegraph Hill Dwellers when it became clear that the lot could be considered for open space and turned into a park. The parties attempting to develop the lot commercially called this an abuse of government power.

In 2004, Peskin was unanimously elected President of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, and was later re-elected by his colleagues for a second two- year term as president in 2005. He also served as a member of the San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission, an agency responsible for regulating development in, on and immediately surrounding the San Francisco Bay.

In 2005, he prevented the conversion of hotel rooms by several San Francisco hotels into condominiums. At the time, Peskin said that “turning 226 hotel rooms into 60 luxury, multimillion-dollar condominium units isn’t addressing the housing needs of San Francisco”. The legislation was ultimately passed with support from housing advocates and hotel workers.

In 2001, Peskin spearheaded a plan to prevent the San Francisco Airport from filling in a 200-square-meter (2,200 sq ft) section of the San Francisco Bay. His proposed cuts to the airport project were passed unanimously by the Board of Supervisors, which cut funding of field studies for environmental impacts of proposed runways nearly in half, from $11.2 million to $6.2 million.

Peskin was first elected in December 2000, along with other progressive neighborhood activists who had gained their first significant political experience on Tom Ammiano’s mayoral campaign. When he was sworn into office, he described District 3 (which comprises Chinatown, North Beach, Nob Hill, and most of Russian Hill) as the “living room” of San Francisco.

During his time as Supervisor of District 3 (2001–2009), Peskin supported the New Jefferson Street Project. The Project was a plan to create the first pedestrian priority street to accompany the high volume of tourist traffic into Fisherman’s Wharf.

In 2003, Peskin passed legislation to establish a 100-foot buffer zone around abortion clinics, requiring protesters to acquire consent before approaching people who are seeking access to those facilities. According to Peskin, the bill was designed to “protect all patients, especially those who are too intimidated by protesters to confront them and ask them to go away.”
