308.04 Appointment and organization of board of trustees.
Within sixty days after a regional airport authority has been created under section 308.03 of the Revised Code, the board of trustees for such regional airport authority shall be appointed as provided in the resolution creating it.
Each member of the board of trustees, before entering upon the member’s official duties, shall take and subscribe to an oath or affirmation that the member will honestly, faithfully, and impartially perform the duties of office, and that the member will not be interested directly or indirectly in any contract let by the regional airport authority. Any contract let by the regional airport authority in which a member of the board of trustees is directly or indirectly interested is void and unenforceable, unless a member with an interest in a contract first discloses the member’s interest in writing to the remaining members of the board and the member with the interest refrains from any participation in the matter.
After each member of the board has taken the oath as prescribed by this section the board shall meet and organize by electing one of its members as president and another as vice-president, who shall hold their respective offices until the next annual meeting of the board as provided in its bylaws. At each annual meeting thereafter the board shall elect from its membership a president and a vice-president who shall serve for a term of one year.
The board shall appoint and fix the compensation of a secretary-treasurer, who shall not be a member of the board and who shall serve at the pleasure of the board.
