The term of office of the Planning Commission members shall be staggered. As the term of each member expires, the vacancy thus created shall be filled by a majority vote of the Board of Trustees for a term of three (3) years. If a vacancy occurs other than by expiration of term, the Board of Trustees by majority vote shall appoint a new member to fill the unexpired term.

Commission members may be removed from office for cause by the Town Board prior to the expiration of the appointed term for cause.

At the first regular Commission meeting in January of each year, the first item of business shall be the selection of the Commission Chairperson, Vice Chairperson from the membership of the Commission.

The Chairperson shall preside over meetings. In the event questions over procedures arise, Robert’s Rules of Order shall prevail.

The Commission shall establish rules and procedures that govern its operation.

The Commission shall hold at least one (1) regular meeting per month.

Special meetings may be called by any three (3) appointed members of the Commission or by the Mayor upon due notice to the Chairperson and other members of the Commission.
