There is hereby created and established a Civil Service Commission which shall consist of three (3) members appointed by a majority vote of the Council for terms of six (6) years, who shall serve until their successors are appointed.
Members shall be appointed by a majority vote of Council for a term of three (3) years with a maximum of two (2) consecutive terms and shall continue in office until a successor is appointed. Persons currently on Boards, Commissions or Committees having served either 2 consecutive terms or a total of 6 consecutive years at the end of their current term are not eligible for reappointment, but may reapply after sitting out one term. Persons currently in office may serve out their existing appointment. Each Board, Commission or Committee may designate one person with exceptional professional qualifications to be exempt from term limits with Council's approval. That exception is non-transferable and will remain with only that person until that person is no longer on that Board or Commission. (Amended 11-5-13)
