The 5-to-2 vote Tuesday started a three-step process to remove city manager Steve Stanton from the job he's held for 14 years.
Mr. Stanton, 48, confirmed last week that he is a transsexual. With a solid reputation as a forceful and energetic leader, he had hoped to keep his $140,000 (U.S.)-a-year job as he underwent the gender reassignment process.
It's just painful to know seven days ago I was a good guy and now ... I have no integrity, Mr. Stanton told the commission. My challenge here has always been that some day I was going to leave this organization. So I am going to do it with a smile on my face.
