At least fifteen (15) days' written notice of the hearing shall be given to the member whose conduct is in question and to all other members of the Housing Commission. At the hearing the member may be represented by counsel and may appear personally and present such pertinent evidence as he wishes or as the appointing officer requests. If after the hearing the appointing officer determines that a member has been incompetent or has been guilty of neglect of duty or malfeasance, he shall remove the member from the Commission within seven (7) days, and there shall be a vacancy of the office.
