While Tucson’s children go without the pleasure of a summer swim, Liz Miller has been promoted from Assistant City Manager to Deputy City Manager by her boss, Tucson’s City Manager, Richard Miranda.
Miller retired from the City in 2008. Miranda re-hired her in October 2011.
Miller worked under two former managers before her first retirement. She led a committee that sought unsuccessfully to increase the city sales tax last year, according to the Arizona Daily Star.
Last week, the City Council voted to ask taxpayers for money for the City’s crumbling roads.
As an Assistant City Manager she made approximately $140,000 per year. Miller’s new salary is over $165,000. Miller will also receive 30 days of paid vacation each year and her retirement pay. Both she and Miranda are “double dippers.”
