No person shall be eligible for an elective office of the City unless he shall be a qualified elector of the City. No person shall be eligible for an appointive office of the City unless he shall reside within a fifteen-mile radius of the City limits. Provided, however, that should there be any appointive office that requires specialized or professional training, and should there be no resident within a fifteen-mile radius of the City limits who possesses such specialized or professional training who is willing to accept such office, then and in that event the Council may appoint to that office any qualified elector of the State of Michigan who does possess such training, who as a term of appointment agrees to reside within a fifteen-mile radius of the City limits within one year. (Amended 11-3-98.)
