Since the resignation of part-time custodian Tammy Boyd at the courthouse, Administrative Building custodian Billy Ralph has been cleaning both the Administrative Building and the courthouse.Last month, county Building and Grounds Committee members voted to allow Ralph to clean both buildings for four weeks and then the committee would analyze the cost of his salary versus the cost when two employees were being paid for the jobs. Committee members would also consider if the job was being done up to par.During the weeks from July 9 to July 30, Ralph logged 45.5 overtime hours, 43 of which were hours spent cleaning the courthouse.Ralph receives time and a half which is $12 per hour for overtime pay. This means he collected $516 in overtime pay for that four-week period.
