On April 21, 2010 the SFZC Board unanimously passed a resolution to enter into a trial period to explore a model for restructuring the Abbacy of San Francisco Zen Center. The restructuring will create a Central Abbot, which position will be filled by Myogen Steve Stücky; a City Center Abbot, which position will be filled by Ryushin Paul Haller; and an Abiding Senior Dharma Teacher at Green Gulch Farm, which position will be filled by Eijun Linda Ruth Cutts.
