(A) All property, powers and duties and the management and control of the city’s Building Commission shall be vested in a Board consisting of representatives, to be known as Commissioners, appointed by the City Council. Such Board shall consist of three members, each to be appointed for a term of five years except for the initial appointments, which shall be made as follows:
(1) The first Commissioner appointed shall serve a term of one year from the date this section becomes law;
(2) The second Commissioner appointed shall serve a term of two years from the date this section becomes law; and
(3) The third Commissioner appointed shall serve a term of three years from the date this section becomes law.
(B) As the term of each such initial appointee expires, the successor to fill the vacancy created by such expired term shall be appointed for a term of five years. If any Commissioner appointed under this section fails or refuses to qualify within 20 days of appointment or if the position of any Commissioner becomes vacant for any reason prior to the expiration of his or her term of office, a successor shall be appointed by the City Council to complete the unexpired portion of such term.
(C) Each Commissioner, at the time of his or her appointment, shall be a resident of the city. No Commissioner shall receive any compensation for his or her services as such, but each member shall be reimbursed by the City Building Commission for any reasonable and necessary expenses actually incurred in the discharge of his or her duties as a member of the Board.
