NM Stat § 72-16-10 (1996 through 1st Sess 50th Legis) What's This?

72-16-10. Election of directors.

A. At each general election, directors shall be elected from single-member districts in which they reside. The board shall ensure that the districts remain contiguous, compact and as equal in population as is practicable, assessing the existing districts following each federal decennial census to accomplish that objective. A redistricting shall be effective at the following regular board election. Incumbent board members whose residences are redistricted out of their districts may serve out their term of office.

B. The qualified electors of the authority shall elect similarly one or two qualified electors as directors to serve six-year terms as directors and as successors to the directors whose terms end on the first day of January next following each election. Nothing herein may be construed as preventing a qualified elector of the authority from any single-member district from being elected or reelected as a director to succeed himself.
