Section 77434 Of Article 3. The California Strawberry Commission From California Food And Agricultural Code >> Division 22. >> Part 2. >> Chapter 17.5. >> Article 3.

. Except for the ex officio members of the commission, an alternate member for each member shall be elected in the same manner as the member. An alternate member, in the absence of the member for whom he or she is an alternate, shall serve in place of the member on the commission. An alternate member may also serve in place of any other absent member of the same classification (producer, shipper, or processor) from the same district if that member's alternate is also absent. However, an alternate may not serve in place of more than one absent member at a meeting. An alternate member serving in place of a member shall have and be able to exercise all rights, privileges, and powers of the member when serving on the commission. In the event of death, removal, resignation, or the disqualification of a member, the alternate for that member, or another alternate of the same classification from the same district if the alternate for that member is absent, shall act as a member on the commission until a qualified successor is elected.
