The commission, except the initial members who are named in this act, must be appointed by the Governor upon the recommendation of the legislative delegation from the county, including the Senator. The initial terms shall begin as of the effective date of this act. A vacancy occurring in the office of commissioner by reason of death, resignation, or otherwise, must be filled for the remainder of the unexpired term by appointment by the Governor, upon the recommendation of a majority of the legislative delegation of Spartanburg County, including the Senator."
