Whenever a seat on a Town board or commission other than the Town Council becomes vacant because of removal of the member, or for any other reason (e.g., resignation, ceasing to be a resident of the Town, expiration of term, etc.), the seat shall not be filled for the unexpired term; rather, the new appointee shall sit for a two-year term, unless he or she must be appointed for a one-year term to guarantee that approximately one-half (½) of the terms on the board or commission expire each year. In the event of a vacancy due to the expiration of a term and a successor has not been appointed prior to the expiration of the term, the sitting member shall act until a successor is appointed. (Prior code 2.30.030; Ord. 1288 §1, 2008)
