She’s living now in Arizona, a long way from Largo where her transgender revelation as Steve Stanton cost her a longtime job as city manager, but Susan Stanton has a shot at returning to the Sunshine State.
From the Palm Beach Post:
Stanton’s gender was not mentioned by [Lake Worth] city commissioners Thursday during a discussion of city manager finalists.
“We don’t have time for bigotry in the city of Lake Worth,” Mayor Jeff Clemens said. “There’s too much for us to do. I’m going to make my decision based on who the best candidate is, period.”
In her cover letter to the city, Stanton offered to work 90 days without pay on a trial basis. The letter says she used to live in West Palm Beach.
