  § 134-62. Membership; term of office; compensation of members; vacancies.  


Latest version.
  • The planning commission shall be composed of five members. Each member of the board of commissioners shall be entitled to appoint one member to the commission. Each member appointed by a member of the board of commissioners shall serve concurrently with and at the pleasure of the appointing commissioner's term of office and until a successor is appointed. If an appointing commissioner is no longer in office due to a general election or a special election in which more than one year remains in that commissioner's term, any member appointed by that commissioner shall be subject to removal with or without cause and without regard to any unexpired term by the newly elected commissioner filling such seat. The newly elected commissioner shall have the right to appoint a new member to the commission under the same manner as his or her predecessor. Ex officio members of the commission who hold public office shall serve on the commission during the term they hold such public office. The compensation of the members, if any, shall be determined by the board of commissioners and shall be paid for each meeting of the commission actually attended. Any vacancy in the membership of the planning commission shall be filled for the unexpired term in the same manner as the original appointment. No person who holds elective public office shall be eligible to serve as a member during the term of such elective office, and the position of any member shall be deemed vacant upon such member qualifying as a candidate for elective public office. Such vacancy shall be filled for an unexpired term in the manner that original appointments are required to be made.
