When the governing body of a city adopts a resolution declaring the need for an authority, it shall promptly notify the mayor of the adoption. Upon receiving the notice and if his office is one filled by election by the people, the mayor, subject to the confirmation of a majority of the members of the governing body, shall appoint five persons as commissioners of the authority. The mayor shall appoint two additional commissioners who are tenants of the authority if the authority has tenants, or within one year after the authority first does have tenants. One such tenant commissioner shall be over 62 years of age if the authority has tenants of such age.
If the office of the mayor is not elective, the city governing body shall make the appointments.
The amendments to this section enacted by the Legislature at the 1975–76 Regular Session shall not affect the office of any commissioner of a housing authority, which on January 1, 1976, has seven commissioners, but the successors to the two additional commissioners appointed pursuant to the changes in this section which were made by Chapter 120 of the Statutes of 1972 or Chapter 545 of the Statutes of 1974 shall be tenants of the authority and one shall be over 62 years of age if the authority has tenants of such age.
