Sec. 205-45.
Board of Commissioners.
The governing and administrative body of the Authority shall be a Board
of Commissioners consisting of 7 members to be appointed by the
Mayor
of the City of Peoria with the advice and consent of the City Council.
Within 10 days of such appointments, the Mayor of the City of
Peoria
shall file with the City Clerk a certificate of appointment for each
commissioner so appointed. Upon such filing, the persons so appointed shall
constitute the Board of Commissioners of the Peoria Civic Center Authority
and upon taking the oath of office as hereinafter provided shall be deemed
to have qualified and to be empowered to exercise the powers and authority
prescribed in this Article.
The initial terms of such Commissioners shall be 2 terms for
5
years, 2 terms for 4 years and one term for each of
3 years, 2
years and one year respectively. The length of the term of the first
Commissioners shall be determined by lots at their first meetings. The
initial terms of office of Commissioners who are to so hold office shall
continue until July 1, which next follows the expiration of the respective
periods from the date of the filing of the certificate of appointments in
the office of the City Clerk, as aforesaid, and until their successors are
appointed and qualified by taking their oath of office.
At the expiration of the term of each of the Commissioners, and of each
succeeding Commissioner or in the event of a vacancy, resignation, removal
or refusal to act, the Mayor of the City of Peoria shall appoint a
Commissioner in the manner hereinabove provided, to hold office in the case
of a vacancy occurring for whatever reason, for the unexpired term or in
the case of expiration, for a term of 5 years, and until his
successor
is appointed and has qualified. Each appointment shall become effective
upon the filing by the Mayor of a certificate of the appointment in the
office of the City Clerk. Any commissioner may be appointed to succeed
himself.
No commissioner shall receive any compensation, whether in form of
salary, per diem allowance or otherwise, for or in connection with his
services as such commissioner. Each Commissioner, however, shall be
entitled to reimbursement for any necessary expenditures in connection with
the performance of his duties.
