Latest version.
  • (a)

    The respective appointing bodies shall have authority to designate who shall be the chairman and the vice-chairman of the Commission, who shall not be from the same county. If the appointing bodies do not designate such officers, then the Commission may elect the chairman and vice-chairman from among its members. The county from which the first chairman shall be appointed shall be determined by priority in time as shown on the official resolution of appointment, or in case of conflict shall be determined by agreement between the two counties. Thereafter, the office of chairman and vice-chairman shall rotate annually between the two counties, with each respective appointing body retaining the authority to name the officer from its county.

    (b)

    The Commission shall also elect a secretary and a treasurer who may or may not be members of the Commission, as the Commission in its discretion may determine. The offices of secretary and treasurer may be held by the same person. Subject to the provisions of Section 5(a) and Section 6(a), each officer of the Commission shall serve for a term of one year and shall be eligible for redesignation or reelection.
