The Town of Jackson Board approved a pay increase for water-department employee Caleb Sartin following a request from Maintenance Supervisor Matt Leggett.
Leggett told the board that Sartin had completed water class I and II and obtained gas certificates and had completed his second year of service. “Mr. Leggett would like to get him to $18.50,” the minutes record. David Guillory moved to approve the raise and William Free seconded; the board set the effective date as the beginning of the next pay period.
The board recorded no opposition and authorized the clerk and mayor to update payroll accordingly. The minutes do not list Sartin speaking at the meeting; payroll adjustments are to be processed administratively.
