L. Julius Turman was nominated by the board’s rules committee to succeed Jim Hammer on the commission. The appointment would be for a four-year term ending at the end of April 2015.

Turman, a former Assistant U.S. Attorney, has also served as a commissioner on the San Francisco Human Rights Commission.

He was nominated in a 2-1 vote on June 2 by the board’s rules committee, with Supervisor Jane Kim dissenting.
