Checking up on how our former deputy city manager that was fired for telling the truth is doing as the city manager of Deltona Florida, I found this in the Monday, November 30, 2015 Daytona Beach News-Journal:
In her first six months as city manager, Jane Shang has brought progress to Deltona, which, in turn, brought praise from her bosses, the City Commission.
Shang has engaged Deltona in a beautification program, forwarded plans to construct a community center, arranged a community visioning session and begun evaluating her own staff. In an interview, Mayor John Masiarczyk said Shang is “doing great.”
And we allowed our former city manager to fire her for telling the truth. I have to wonder how much more talent was run off.
We deserve better

She was definitely run off. Otherwise, it is not so much that talented people are persecuted or run off here than it is that the top jobs are already slotted for those who know how to play the Shaplite game, like Wilson and Carmen of late. Now, watch for appointments at UMC and EPCH to see if we get the most qualified candidates or the ones who will deliver the goods to local investors, like just happened at EPISD.

El Paso vs. Deltona? Where would YOU rather live? Believe me, she’s doing just fine. Her “firing” was a blessing and not even in disguise.

Yes. Good that she landed on both feet rather than waste her mind here.
