Flagstaff Deputy City Manager Shane Dille will be heading south this winter. On Friday, Dille was named the new Town Manager of Sahuarita, a town of about 30,000 located between Tucson and Nogales.
Dille has served the City of Flagstaff as a Deputy City Manager since 2016. The intent was always to be a City Manager, Dille said, and in 2019 he was the only internal candidate to be considered for the City Manager position in Flagstaff. Ultimately he was not offered the position, as Greg Clifton was chosen.
When the opportunity in Sahuarita came up, Dille found it hard to resist. “Sahuarita has tremendous potential as a young, budding, very rapidly growing area,” he said. “It’s exciting, as a town manager, to be a part of that.”
