Members must be an owner and/or designated appointee of a hotel, motel, bed and breakfast or vacation home rental within the SLOCTBID and will be appointed by the board of supervisors. The county advisory board should have balanced representation from the various geographical areas of the district and the various types of lodging businesses within the district. The board of supervisors shall consider recommendations from the existing SLOCTBID steering committee for initial appointments. The board of supervisors shall consider recommendations from the county advisory board for subsequent appointments to the county advisory board. All persons appointed to the county advisory board must be nominated by a process established by the board of supervisors. All nominees and members must be operators of a lodging business within the district, or employed by the operator of such a lodging business. The initial members of the county advisory board shall serve staggered terms, with half of the members serving a two-year term, and the remaining members serving a four-year term. The length of the term for each individual member of the initial county advisory board shall be chosen by lot at the first meeting of the county advisory board. Thereafter, all members subsequently appointed to the county advisory board shall serve for four-year terms. Members of the county advisory board shall serve at the pleasure of the board of supervisors and may be removed by the board of supervisors at any time. If the members no longer represent the lodging establishment for which they were selected to the county advisory board, their seat will be vacated and a new member will be appointed representing the same jurisdiction in the SLOCTBID District. The county advisory board shall review the implementation of this chapter, the implementation of programs and activities funded through this chapter, and advise the board of supervisors on the amount of the SLOCTBID's area's assessments and on the services, programs, and activities to be funded by the assessments, and shall perform such other duties as required by the law, including preparing the annual report required by Section 36533 of the law.
