Nasser’s appointment was unanimously approved last month by the board after Kathy Kinney the current director, submitted a letter of retirement.

The position pays $55,620 for 2020 and will carry the same salary in 2021.

The district is a separate entity from county government and is funded through a tipping fee on every ton of wasted dumped at the Sycamore Ridge Landfill in the southern portion of the county.

Nasser will reportedly continue to work part-time at Laquinta Suites, where he served as director of sales.
