Officers may be elected to any number of consecutive terms. Officers may but need not be elected from among the directors.”

If the governing board has reasonable cause to believe a member has failed to disclose actual or possible conflicts of interest, it informs the individual and affords them the opportunity to explain. After hearing the individual's response and making further investigation, the governing board will determine if a conflict exists and if so, will take appropriate disciplinary and corrective action.”
