The West Palm Beach City Commission has voted unanimously to adopt an ordinance prohibiting discrimination in employment, housing and public accommodation based on gender identity and expression.

The ordinance requires one more Commission vote before being finalized.

The firing last month in Largo, Florida of City Manager Steve Stanton after Stanton began sex reassignment played a factor in the decision said a West Palm LGBT rights organization.
