What are temporary grant positions? Why were they created and when?
Temporary grant positions are non-full-time equivalent (FTE) positions established to perform work directly associated with federal grants, public charity grants, private foundation grants, or research grants. Temporary grant positions were originally created by a proviso in the FY 1990-91 Appropriation Act and were subsequently codified in the Code of Laws, Section 8-11-196. The position category provides state agencies with additional flexibility to hire and terminate employees responsible for performing grant work.
