§ 6242 Filling Board Vacancies

This law says that when a board member leaves, the group that originally chose that member gets to pick a replacement, and the new person only serves for the rest of the original term.

Key Takeaways

•The appointing body (like a mayor or governor) fills any board vacancy.
•The replacement only serves the remaining time left in the original term.
•No new full term is started for the new appointee.

Example

A city council member who was appointed by the mayor resigns halfway through their 4‑year term.

The mayor, who made the original appointment, chooses someone new to take the seat, and that new person stays on the council only until the original 4‑year term ends, not for a brand‑new full term.
