Fired Tucson city manager lands Pima County job
BY ANDREA KELLY, ARIZONA DAILY STAR
Former Tucson City Manager Mike Hein has been hired to head up the county’s Office of Emergency Management and Homeland Security.
Hein will make $110,000 a year in the new position.
He was selected after a three-member panel interviewed the six finalists for the job and made a recommendation to County Administrator Chuck Huckelberry.
Hein, Tucson's city manager since April 2005, lost the job in April when the City Council voted 4-3 to fire him. He received six months' severance pay. He was arrested in September in Oro Valley on a charge of DUI.
Hein’s first day will be Monday.
