The Sobrato Organization CEO Tony Mestres Elected Board Chair for The Bay Area Council
The Bay Area Council (BAC) today Announced Libby Schaaf as New President and The Sobrato Organization CEO Tony Mestres as Chair of the Board of Directors.
The Bay Area Council has been a powerful force for regional progress since 1945 — convening business, government, and community leaders to tackle the Bay Area's most pressing challenges, from housing affordability and public safety to economic vitality and opportunity for all.
At TSO, we believe that the Bay Area's future depends on strong, sustained public-private partnerships — and that business has both an opportunity and a responsibility to show up for the communities where we live and work. Tony's new role as BAC's Board Chair reflects that commitment, bringing TSO's voice and leadership to one of the region's most influential civic tables at a pivotal moment.
We congratulate Tony on this appointment and look forward to continuing our longstanding partnership with BAC and working closely with an outstanding new President and CEO, Libby Schaaf, to build a Bay Area where everyone can thrive.
