    2. Four members, one of whom is a superior court judge, one of whom is a clerk of a superior court, one of whom is a sheriff, and one of whom is a county commissioner, shall be appointed by the Governor for terms of four years; their initial appointments, however, shall be one for a four-year term, one for a three-year term, one for a two-year term, and one for a one-year term. No individual shall serve beyond the time he or she holds the office by reason of which he or she was initially eligible for appointment.
  2. In the event of death, resignation, disqualification, or removal of any member of the board for any reason, vacancies shall be filled in the same manner as the original appointment and successors shall serve for the unexpired term.
  3. The initial terms for all members shall begin on July 1, 2018.
  4. Membership on the board shall not constitute public office, and no member shall be disqualified from holding public office by reason of his or her membership.
  5. The board shall elect a chairperson from among its membership and may elect such other officers and committees as it considers appropriate.
  6. Members of the board shall serve without compensation, although each member of the board shall be reimbursed for actual expenses incurred in the performance of his or her duties from funds available to the council. Such reimbursement shall be limited to all travel and other expenses necessarily incurred through service on the board, in compliance with this state's travel rules and regulations; provided, however, that in no case shall a member of the board be reimbursed for expenses incurred in the member's capacity as the representative of another state agency.
