A Board of Zoning Appeals is hereby created. Such Board shall consist of five members who shall be appointed by the Mayor and vacancies shall be filled in the same manner for the unexpired term. One of these members shall be a member of the Planning Commission. The terms of all members shall be of such length and so arranged that the term of one member will expire each year. The term of the member of the Planning Commission shall expire at the same time as his term on such Commission. Each member shall serve until his successor is appointed and qualified. Members of the Board shall be removable for nonperformance of duty, misconduct in office, or other causes, by Council upon written charges having been filed with Council and, after a public hearing has been held regarding such charges, a copy of the charges having been served upon the member so charged at least ten days prior to the hearing either personally or by registered mail or by leaving the same in his usual place of residence. The member shall be given an opportunity to be heard and answer such charges.
