New commission appointees shall assume office at the first meeting in June of each year. However, all appointees to commissions shall hold office until their successors are appointed and qualified. All vacancies shall be filled in the same manner as for an expired term, but the appointment shall be effective immediately when made and only for the unexpired term. With the exception of the convention and visitors bureau, no appointed commission, committee or task force member shall be an employee of the city, but an ex officio member may be so employed.
