In cities, the members of the commission shall be appointed by the city council subject to the provisions of the city charter, and in towns the members of the commission shall be appointed by the board of selectmen.

When a commission is first established, terms of the members shall be for one, 2, or 3 years, and so arranged that the terms of approximately 1/3 of the members will expire each year, and their successors shall be appointed for terms of 3 years each. Any member of a commission so appointed may, after a public hearing with notice under RSA 675:7, if requested, be removed for cause by the appointing authority.
