(b) At the time of the election of the first board, the governing body of the authorizing subdivision shall divide the directors into three groups containing as nearly equal whole numbers as may be possible. The governing body of the authorizing subdivision shall specify for which term each director is elected. The initial term of office of the first group shall be two years. The initial term of office of the second group shall be four years. The initial term of office of the third group shall be six years.
(c) Thereafter, the term of office of each director shall be six years. If at the expiration of any term of office of any director a successor has not been elected, the director whose term of office has expired shall continue to hold office until his or her successor has been elected. If at any time there is a vacancy on the board, a successor director shall be elected by the governing body of the authorizing subdivision to serve for the unexpired term applicable to the vacancy.
(d) Each director shall be a duly qualified elector residing in the authorizing subdivision. Directors shall be eligible for reelection. Each director shall be reimbursed for expenses actually incurred by him or her in and about the performance of his or her duties. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, no director shall be compensated for serving as a director of the authority.
(e) Any director of an authority may be impeached and removed from office in the same manner and on the same grounds provided in Section 175 of the Constitution of Alabama of 1901, and the general laws of the state for impeachment and removal of the officers.
