Fort Lauderdale has hired fired Lake Worth City Manager Susan Stanton as an accountant in its Housing and Community Development Division.
Stanton, formerly Steve Stanton, was previously city manager in Largo, but was fired in 2007 after announcing plans to change genders. Stanton was then hired in 2009 in Lake Worth, where she served for 2 1/2 years before being fired on a 3-2 vote in December.
Her position with Fort Lauderdale is considered “temporary full-time,” city spokesman Chaz Adams said. Her annual salary works out to $58,739.
“She’s going to provide some management assistance to the Housing and Community Development Division,”
Adams said. Her first day on the job was Thursday.
