Subchapter IV. Powers of Tax Lagoon
§ 4345. Election of lagoon managers and a secretary-treasurer; terms of office; vacancies.

(a) At the first meeting the taxables shall elect from their group the number of lagoon managers specified in the lagoon order, and a secretary-treasurer.
(b) The term of office of each lagoon manager and of the secretary-treasurer shall be 1 year. If the lagoon managers and secretary-treasurer first elected are elected prior to July 1 of any year, the time elapsing between said election and the first annual January meeting provided for in § 4348 of this title shall be deemed to constitute the first year of their terms of office. However, if the lagoon managers and secretary-treasurer first elected are elected on or after July 1 of any year, their terms of office shall not be deemed to begin until the said first annual January meeting, although they shall assume the duties and responsibilities of their respective offices immediately upon election.
(c) In the event that any tax lagoon officer dies, resigns, ceases to be 1 of the taxables, or is removed from office, the remaining lagoon officers shall, within 60 days, appoint a taxable to serve the remainder of the term of such officer. However, except in the case of death or removal from office, each tax lagoon officer shall continue to serve until a successor has been appointed.
