Upon the expiration of the term of office of a member of the Board, his successor shall be appointed for a term of five years. Vacancies shall be filled for an unexpired term. Continued absence of any member from regular meetings of the Board shall render any such member liable to removal from office by the Mayor. Three members of the Board shall constitute a quorum.

No Board member shall act in a case in which he has a personal interest.
