Appointed members of the Planning Commission shall attend educational programs designed for training members of state planning commissions if the adopted city budget for that fiscal year includes funds to pay for tuition, registration and travel expenses for the training. Nothing in this section shall prevent a member who has not had training from finishing his or her term of office unless the member resigns or is removed by action of the City Council. The member shall be ineligible for reappointment at the conclusion of the term of office if he or she did not attend training. The Planning Commission shall include in its bylaws what training programs qualify to meet this requirement.
