The Claiborne County Commission on Sept. 21 approved Resolution 2020-085, which increases multiple sanitation payroll and benefit lines to reflect a 3% pay increase and raises the pay for full‑time convenience‑center attendants to $10.00 per hour.
Commissioner Kim Large moved the resolution, Commissioner Steve Mason seconded, and the roll‑call vote was 20 for and 1 abstention.
