(c) A person's public office or employment shall not bar appointment as a member of a board or subcommittee, nor shall membership serve as a bar to other public office or employment; provided, however, that no more than three employees of the department or of a department facility may hereafter be appointed as a member of a board or subcommittee.

(d) On initially constituted boards, and insofar as practicable, on subcommittees, one-third of the members shall be appointed for a two-year term, one-third for a three-year term and the remainder for a four-year term. Thereafter, each member shall be appointed for a four-year term. All terms shall begin to run from the first day of the year of the appointment. Vacancies shall be filled for unexpired terms. No person may serve as a member of a board of a subcommittee for more than two terms consecutively unless otherwise provided by local law.

(e) Local governments shall reimburse board members for the reasonable expenses incurred in the performance of their duties and may also offer them a per diem compensation, but only their reasonable expenses are reimbursable as an operating cost pursuant to this article.

(f) Local governments may remove a board or subcommittee member for cause, after written notice of charges and an opportunity for the member to be heard.
