(A) Members of the Planning Commission shall be appointed by the City Council to serve for a term of four years. The terms of the five Planning Commission members shall be staggered so that the terms of no more than two commissioners expire in any one year. The terms shall begin on the first day of the calendar year. Upon an expired term, the member’s position shall be filled by the City Council by appointment to a four-year term. The City Council shall appoint new members as soon as practicable, making every effort to appoint members at the first regular meeting of December of the year in which the member term expires.
(B) Although there is no limit upon the consecutive or nonconsecutive terms served by a member, a member must re-apply each time to continue serving; reappointments are not automatic, but members may be requested to continue serving until a replacement is found. The City Council reserves the right to not reappoint a Commissioner.
