6480.7
. If a consolidation involving the Capistrano Beach Sanitary
District and the Dana Point Sanitary District is approved, the board
of directors of the consolidated district shall initially consist of
10 members who shall be the members of the boards of directors of the
two districts as of the effective date of the consolidation.
Notwithstanding Section 56844 of the Government Code, those board
members shall determine within 60 days from the effective date of the
consolidation whether the board of directors shall consist of 5, 7,
9, or 11 members, and they shall further determine within that time
the persons who shall thereafter be members of the board of
directors. If those board members determine that the board of
directors shall consist of 11 members, they shall appoint the
eleventh member whose term shall be the same as the terms of the
members of the board of directors whose terms will first expire. Upon
making those determinations, the members so selected shall notify by
resolution the Board of Supervisors and the Registrar of Voters of
the County of Orange of the number of members and the names of the
persons who have been selected or appointed as members of the board
of directors, and of the expiration dates of their terms of office.
If that selection and appointment process is not completed within 60
days of the effective date of the consolidation, the Board of
Supervisors of the County of Orange shall determine the number of
members of the board of directors and shall select the members of the
board of directors from among those 10 persons, or call a special
election for the election of the directors of the consolidated
district on the next available election date. In that event, those 10
persons shall serve as the board of directors until the results of
the special election are declared by the board of supervisors.
