Exempt appointments in Community Wellness and Safety

Summary

Two positions in the newly restructured Department of Community Wellness and Safety were exempted from normal hiring rules because their grant funding is limited — one through 2027, the other ending September 29. The chair noted such positions wouldn't normally qualify but supported the requests given the circumstances.
