Lake Worth, FL - Hiring of Lee Menke, Director of Information Technology

The City of Lake Worth has hired a new Director of Information Technology, Lee Menke, who will start today. Lee comes to the City with 15 years of state and municipal government experience in Information Technology leadership, management and project development.

Lee is leaving a position as the Information Systems Manager for the Broward County Board of County Commissioners where he directed the IT Operations of the 9th largest library system in the country. In this position he maintained 99.9% uptime for an extensive data centre; developed cloud and local based capital projects that improved efficiency and productivity; managed the Digital Divide project which provides internet access to economically disadvantaged residents and deployed 450 hotspots to provide internet access to retired and active military personnel and their families.

“As technology has changed and improved, Lake Worth has had a difficult time keeping up.  Limited resources and implementation issues have hampered our capabilities, however having someone like Lee come on board will propel us into the future.” ~City Manager Michael Bornstein

    Limited resources my ass. How about another code officer? That's what we really need. Limited resources? Maybe time to give up the Commission's 500 per month ridiculous car allowance.

    Limited Resources? Reason enough for the commission to vote themselves a raise and then hire this "expert"

    What idiotic talking points: propel us into the future? This commission is propelling us into bankruptcy.
