BOWLING GREEN — Wood County has combined the positions of assistant county administrator and solid waste management district director for a savings of nearly $90,000 annually.

Last week county commissioners agreed to combine the solid waste director’s position, which was vacant, with the duties of Assistant County Administrator Joe Fawcett.

He will handle solid waste, landfill operations, budget management, and other projects. His salary rises from about $56,622 a year to $60,213.
