Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:
Number of board members increased
SECTION 1. Section 1 of Act 518 of 1982 is amended to read:
"Section 1. The governing body of the School District of Berkeley County shall be a board known as the Berkeley County Board of Education. The board shall consist of nine members who beginning with the 2002 election must be elected in the manner hereinafter specified in this act. The present members of the Berkeley County Board of Education shall continue to serve until the time specified in Section 2, at which time the members of the board elected in the manner provided for in this act shall take office. The county superintendent of education shall be appointed by the board."
Election and terms of members
SECTION 2. Section 2 of Act 518 of 1982, as last amended by Act 584 of 1994, is further amended to read:
"Section 2. Except as otherwise provided herein, the members of the board must be elected in a nonpartisan election to be held at the same time as the general election for terms of four years. At the 2002 election, successors to the current members residing in Districts 2, 4, 6, and 8 whose terms expire in 2002 shall be elected for four-year terms. At the 2002 election, a member shall also be elected from District 9 for a two-year term and then at the 2004 election for a four-year term. At the 2004 election, successors to the current members residing in Districts 1, 3, 5, and 7, whose terms expire in 2004, shall be elected for four-year terms. Successors to these members must be elected in a nonpartisan election to be held at the same time as the general election every four years thereafter. All members of the board shall serve until their successors are elected and qualify. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, members shall take office at the first meeting of the board following certification of the election. At any election the candidate receiving the highest number of votes shall be deemed elected.
A vacancy occurring for any reason other than expiration of a term must be filled by special election for the unexpired portion of the term as provided in Section 7-13-190. The board shall elect from among its members one person to serve as chairman for a term of one year, provided that no chairman is eligible to serve more than two consecutive terms.
The county superintendent of education appointed by the board shall not be a member of the board."

Each member of the board must be a resident of the district in which he is elected and must be elected by the qualified electors of that district. All persons desiring to qualify as a candidate shall file written notice of such candidacy with the county election commission at least thirty days before the date set for any such election but not earlier than sixty days prior to an election. This notice of candidacy must be a sworn statement and shall include the candidate's name, age, voting precinct, single-member election district in which the candidate resides, period of residence in the district, and such other information as the county election commission shall require.
The county commissioners of election shall conduct and supervise all elections for members of the board in the manner governed by the election laws of this State, mutatis mutandis. The commissioners shall prepare the necessary ballots, appoint managers for the voting precincts, and do all things necessary to carry out such elections, including the counting of ballots and declaring the results thereof. The commissioners shall advertise the date of any such election sixty days preceding the election in the newspapers of general circulation published in Berkeley County and shall publish a second notice two weeks thereafter. The cost of the elections shall be borne by Berkeley County. The results of the elections must be determined in accordance with the nonpartisan plurality method prescribed by Section 5-15-61 of the 1976 Code."
