(A) A grant employee occupies a position which is more than 50% funded by grant monies or another alternate funding source when it is anticipated that the grant or alternate funding source will continue for more than two years. Grant employees, may, upon consent of the Board of County Commissioners, accrue benefits in the same manner as other employees, but the term of a grant employee is subject to the availability of funds from the grant or other alternate funding source. Such grant employees will not be retained when grant funding is no longer available. Employees accepting grant positions shall be required to sign a letter acknowledging the conditions of their employment and the funding source to which the position is tied.
(B) Grant monies are funds received from sources other than the county’s General Fund, enterprise funds and specialized taxes which are anticipated to be available for more than two years and may require regular justification reports to maintain and receive funding. Temporary fund contributions mandated by law or to support programs mandated by law or inter local agreement, which are anticipated to be available more than two years, may also be considered grant monies.
(C) The Human Resource Director, consulting with the Clerk/Auditor’s office, will determine which positions are to be funded by grant monies, including alternate funding sources.
