He first came to public notice as President of the North Beach Neighbors, where he co-led the effort to bring a weekly Farmer's Market to the neighborhood[2] and published a commercial vacancy study that raised alarm bells on the difficulties facing small businesses in San Francisco[3]. Most recently, Sauter started North Beach Delivers, a fee-free delivery program to provide relief and support to local restaurants during the COVID-19 pandemic.

He helps the non-profit with grants, fundraising, program development, and empowerment to improve their communities.[4]

On January 28, 2020, Sauter announced that he would be a candidate for the District 3 Supervisor seat, challenging four-term incumbent Aaron Peskin. In June 2020, the San Francisco Ethics Commission certified Sauter's eligibility as the first publicly financed candidate in the November 2020 race [5]

In July 2020, Sauter vocally advocated for introducing a tax measure into the November 2020 ballot to finance Caltrain, which has seen a 95% reduction in ridership due to the COVID-19 pandemic in California.[6]
