Each member-at-large and the public member are persons nominated for appointment by the handler members of the commission and appointed by the director. Any nomination requires a plurality of votes cast by the handler members. When any positions later become vacant for any reason or cause, proceedings to fill the vacancy are the same as for the initial appointments and are undertaken at the next meeting of the commission after the position is vacated.
