Re: Letter of Support for Appointment of Michelle Shoresman
Honorable City Council Members:
I write to offer my enthusiastic support for the appointment of Michelle Shoresman to a vacancy
on the City Council, should one be created in the near future. I was fortunate to meet Michelle
during our time together in Leadership SLO Class 28 (2019) and have since come to know her
in both personal and professional contexts.
Michelle is a consummate public servant, with nearly two decadesÓ experience helping to lead
the San Luis Obispo County Public Health Department, most recently showing her strength and
leadership under pressure during the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic. In addition,
following her appointment by the Council to serve as a Planning Commissioner, Michelle has
demonstrated her willingness to the invest the time and energy needed to be a committed
member of a public legislative body, and has shown herself to be capable of fair, impartial
decision-making.
Michelle embodies the values embraced by the City and City Council, including climate
responsibility and inclusivity initiatives, and leads a lifestyle that authentically reflects these
values. Michelle is both professional and approachable, striking the right balance for a place like
San Luis Obispo. As a resident of San Luis Obispo, I would be pleased to have Michelle
represent me on the City Council, and I hope you will agree that she is ideal for the position.
Thank you for your consideration.
