Section 120050.2.

The board consists of 15 members selected as follows:

(a) One member of the County of San Diego Board of Supervisors, appointed by the board of supervisors.

(b) Four members of the City Council of the City of San Diego, one of whom may be the mayor, appointed by the city council.

(c) One member of each city council appointed individually by the City Councils of the Cities of Chula Vista, Coronado, El Cajon, Imperial Beach, La Mesa, Lemon Grove, National City, Poway, and Santee.

(d) One person, a resident of San Diego County, elected by a two–thirds vote of the board, a quorum being present, who shall serve as chairperson of the board. The chairperson shall serve for a term of four years, except that he or she is subject to removal at any time by a two–thirds vote of the board, a quorum being present. If the person elected chairperson is also a member of the board, the appointing power may not fill the vacancy created by the election of that member as chairperson as long as that member remains chairperson and, if removed as chairperson, that person shall resume the position on the board he or she vacated upon election as chairperson. Section 120102.5 does not apply to any vote taken under this subdivision. Further, in the event that the chairperson is elected from the membership of the board, the County of San Diego shall then have two members appointed by the board of supervisors and the board membership shall remain at 15. In the event the subsequently elected chairperson is not a member, the membership on the board of the second appointee of the County of San Diego shall be suspended and the board membership shall remain at 15.
