Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:
Additional members
SECTION 1. SECTION 2 of Act 848 of 1954 is amended to read:
"SECTION 2. The district is operated, managed, and governed by a commission to be known as 'Berea Public Service District Commission'. The commission shall consist of five resident electors of the district. The original appointments must be for a term of two years for one appointee, for four years for the second appointee, and for six years for the third appointee, and in all cases those persons holding office shall continue to hold office until their successors have been appointed and have qualified. After appointment, the commissioners shall draw lots to determine who shall serve the various terms. All of the terms shall begin on the effective date of this act. Upon the termination of office of a commissioner, a successor must be elected by the qualified electors of the district. A vacancy occurring in the office of a commissioner by reason of death, resignation, or otherwise must be filled for the remainder of the unexpired term by appointment of the Governor upon the recommendation of a majority of the Legislative Delegation of Greenville County, including the senator."
Terms staggered
SECTION 2. The two members of the Berea Public Service District Commission added by the provisions of SECTION 1 of this act must be initially appointed by the Governor upon recommendation of a majority of the Greenville County Legislative Delegation, including the senator, and will be seated as of July first of the year in which the act is approved for terms of one and one-half and three and one-half years to be determined by lot. At the expiration of those two terms, they must be elected for terms of six years each by the qualified electors residing in the Berea Public Service District.
