The City Council is expected to address the matter at its regular meeting Tuesday.



Forbes was appointed Sausalito's city manager in May after announcing in September that she would step down as executive director of the Port of San Francisco, where she served for nine years.



She became Port director in 2016 after serving as interim director and was, at the time, one of the few women in the country leading a major US port.



During her tenure, she oversaw a staff of about 270 and managed major waterfront initiatives, including seawall reinforcement and planning efforts related to sea-level rise along the Embarcadero.

In her final year at the Port, Forbes was a public face of the Fisherman's Wharf Forward initiative, which proposed replacing the shuttered Alioto's Restaurant building with a public plaza overlooking the wharf's fishing fleet.

A spokesperson for Forbes told The Post that she  has devoted much of her life to public service and is widely respected by the many people who have worked with her over the years. 

 Elaine is experiencing a mental health crisis. As the facts become clearer and Elaine obtains legal and healthcare counsel in the coming hours and days, we hope people will respond with compassion, patience and respect for her and her family during an extraordinarily difficult time,  the spokesperson added.
