Section 6.8. Vacancies.
- Trustee at Large. A vacancy created by the death, disqualification, resignation, or removal of a trustee at large shall be filled by majority vote of the remaining trustees until the next regular General Assembly at which an election can be held. The vacancy shall then be filled by election for the balance of the unexpired term, if any.
- Trustee Representing District. A vacancy created by death, disqualification,
resignation, or removal of a trustee representing a district or by the creation
of a new district entitled to be represented by a trustee shall be governed by
the bylaws of the district and Section 9.11 of these Bylaws subject to the
following limitations:
- If fewer than two regular General Assemblies have met and adjourned since the General Assembly at which the trustee took office, the governing body of the district shall make an interim appointment until the position is filled by a special election within one year from the date the vacancy occurs;
- If the vacancy occurs at any other point in the term, either the governing body of the district shall fill the vacancy for the remainder of the term or the District shall provide for an interim appointment by its governing body until the position is filled by a special election.
An invalid election does not create a vacancy for purposes of this section.
