c. The powers of the board are vested in the members thereof in office, and a majority of the total authorized membership of the board is required to exercise its powers at any meeting thereof; provided however, that if a board member has resigned or otherwise vacated his or her membership appointment before the expiration of his or her term, or if a board member does not serve after the expiration of his or her term pending the appointment of a successor, then, until such vacancies are filled, a majority of the currently serving membership of the board is required to exercise its powers at any meeting thereof.
d. The members of the board shall serve without compensation, but the board may, within the limits of funds appropriated or otherwise made available to it, reimburse members for actual expenses necessarily incurred in the discharge of their official duties.
