(A) (1) There is hereby established and created the York County Board of Disabilities and Special Needs, doing business in the community as MaxAbilities of York County, to be composed of 11 members. Board members shall be appointed whenever practicable, so that one board member shall be appointed who shall be a resident of each of the seven County Council districts in the county, and four board members shall be appointed at-large from the county. The members of the board shall be appointed by the Governor, upon the recommendation of a majority of the members of the county legislative delegation, upon recommendation and with the advice and consent of a majority of the members of the County Council.
(2) The terms of the members shall be for four years, or until their successors are appointed and qualify; except that of the first members appointed, members shall be appointed to terms of less than four years, so that the terms of the original appointees shall be staggered so as to permit as near an equal number as possible to be appointed each year.
(3) Vacancies shall be filled for any unexpired term in the same manner as original appointments.
(4) Any member of the board shall be removed by the appointing authority for neglect of duty, misconduct or malfeasance in office, after being given a written statement of reasons and an opportunity to be heard.
(B) (1) No member shall be recommended by County Council to serve more than two full consecutive terms on the board. Previous service on the board for a full term shall be counted in determining a member's service on the board for purposes of the limitations established by this section, but partial terms of service on the board shall not be considered for purposes of the limitations contained in this section.
(2) No member shall be recommended for reappointment to the board after serving two consecutive terms until a minimum of one year has elapsed since the last service of the member on the board.
