Of the members initially appointed, five members shall be appointed for a period of 1 year, four members shall be appointed for a period of 2 years and the remaining members for a period of 3 years.
(b) Appointments to fill any vacancy shall be chosen from the category vacated and be in accordance with the formula set forth in § 254.5(a) (relating to constitution of the Planning Council or Executive Commission).
(c) No individual may serve on a Planning Council or Executive Commission for more than two consecutive terms unless an exception is requested by the local authorities and approved by the Governor’s Council.
