Assistant city manager Troy Perry named interim city manager; outgoing interim waives notice
Summary
The commission appointed Assistant City Manager Troy Perry as interim city manager and voted to waive the outgoing interim manager’s 30‑day notice so Perry could assume duties immediately; staff and the outgoing manager agreed to a transition plan.
The Lake Worth Beach City Commission voted April 21 to appoint Assistant City Manager Troy Perry as interim city manager following the announced departure of the current interim. The commission also waived the outgoing interim manager’s 30‑day notice requirement so Perry could begin immediately and coordinate a handoff.
Details and context: Jamie Brown, the outgoing interim city manager, told the commission he would not apply for the permanent position and offered to assist with transition work. Commissioners discussed a short overlap period to allow knowledge transfer; Perry and Brown said they would coordinate an appropriate transition schedule.
Procedure: The commission made a motion to appoint Perry and to waive the 30‑day notice; both motions passed. No compensation or contract changes were presented at the meeting; commissioners asked staff to work out details off the dais.
Next steps: Perry will assume interim responsibilities and staff will coordinate timelines and public communications about the interim appointment and the search process for a permanent city manager.
