CHAPTER 16
An Act to amend and reenact § 63.2-301 of the Code of Virginia, relating to local boards of social services; member terms of offices.
[S 730]
Approved March 20, 2005

 

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia:

1.  That § 63.2-301 of the Code of Virginia is amended and reenacted as follows:

§ 63.2-301. Local board appointments and terms of office.

The members of each local board first appointed shall be appointed initially for terms of from one to four years so as to provide for the balanced overlapping of the terms of the membership thereon and the members of a local board representing more than one county or city shall be appointed initially for such terms, of not less than one nor more than four years, as may be determined by the governing bodies of their respective counties or cities. Subsequent appointments shall be for a term of four years each, except that appointments to fill vacancies that occur during terms shall be for the remainder of those unexpired terms. Appointments to fill unexpired terms shall not be considered full terms, and such persons shall be eligible to be appointed to two consecutive full terms. No person may serve more than two consecutive full terms; however, this section shall not apply where a local government official is constituted to be the local board. A member of a local board who serves two consecutive full terms shall be ineligible for reappointment to such local board until the end of an intervening four two-year period dating from the expiration of the last of the two consecutive terms.
