Chapter 1. Mandatory Training for Law Enforcement Officers
5-2-1-4. Appointments; Terms; Vacancies; Removal

Sec. 4. All members of the board shall be appointed to the board by the governor. Not more than twelve (12) members may be members of the same political party. All appointments shall be for terms of four (4) years or while maintaining the position held at the time of appointment to the board, whichever is the lesser period. Appointees to the board shall serve as members of the board only while holding the office or position held at the time of appointment to the board in order that the representative nature of the board outlined in section 3 of this chapter may be maintained. However, each member of the board shall serve until the member's successor has been appointed and qualified, unless the member's services are terminated earlier for sufficient reason. Vacancies on the board caused by expiration of a term, termination of the office or position held at time of appointment, or for any other reason shall be filled in the same manner as original appointments. A member appointed to fill a vacancy created other than by expiration of a term shall be appointed for the unexpired term of the member succeeded in the same manner as an original appointment. Members of the board may be reappointed for additional terms. All members of the board shall serve, unless their services are terminated earlier for sufficient reason, until their successors have been appointed and qualified. Members of the board may be removed by the governor for inefficiency, incompetence, neglect of duty, or other good cause after having been accorded a hearing by the governor upon reasonable notice of the charge being made against them.
