5:2A-3 State Athletic Control Board.

3. a. There is created and established within the Department of Law and Public Safety a State Athletic Control Board. The board shall consist of three public members appointed by the Governor with the advice and consent of the Senate for terms of three years, except that of the three members first appointed, one shall be appointed for a term of one year, one for a term of two years and one for a term of three years. One of the members shall be designated by the Governor as chairman of the board at the time of the member's appointment, and shall serve as chairman during the member's entire term of office and until a successor is duly appointed and qualified. The initial chairman shall be the member appointed to a term of three years. No more than two of the members shall be of the same political party. Members shall serve until their successors are appointed and have been qualified. The terms of their successors shall be calculated from the expiration of the incumbents' terms. Any vacancy in the membership of the board other than by expiration of term shall be filled in the same manner as the original appointment but for the unexpired term only.

b. Each member of the board may be removed from office by the Governor for cause. Each member of the board before entering upon his duties shall take and subscribe an oath to perform the duties of his office faithfully, impartially and justly to the best of the member's ability. A record of these oaths shall be filed in the offices of the Secretary of State and the Attorney General.

c. The members of the board shall receive an annual salary of $10,000.00 and shall be reimbursed for actual expenses incurred in the performance of their responsibilities. The members of the board shall not be eligible for membership in any State-administered retirement system.

Action may be taken and motions and resolutions adopted by the board at any meeting thereof by the affirmative vote of at least two members of the board. No vacancy in the membership of the board shall impair the right of a quorum to exercise all powers and perform all duties of the board.
