or urban-county government which have acquired a waterworks or a waterworks
and sewerage system pursuant to KRS 96.350, and which are operating under the

ordinance. No two
(2)members of the commission shall be selected from the same
ward. The commission shall be appointed by the mayor, and shall consist of the

freehold electors of the city who have been bona fide residents of the city for two
(2)years next before their appointment. One
(1)member shall be a member of the
city legislative body. No appointed member shall be related to the mayor or a
member of the city council within the third degree of consanguinity or affinity under
the civil law.
(2)The members of the commission shall enter upon the discharge of their duties as
soon as appointed, and shall hold office four
(4)years and until their successors are
appointed and qualified, except that the member of the commission who is a
member of the city legislative body shall hold office for one
(1)year and until his
successor is appointed and qualified. Any vacancy shall be filled in the same way
the original appointments were made. The compensation of members shall be fixed
by the city council prior to their appointment. The commission shall hold at least
one
(1)meeting each month, or more if required. Meetings shall be held at stated
times, except special meetings.
(3)The commission may designate a member to act as chairman in the absence of the
mayor, with the same powers the mayor would have if presiding. If the commission
consists of five
(5)members, three
(3)members shall constitute a quorum. If the
commission consists of three
(3)members, two
(2)members shall constitute a
quorum. The mayor or any two
(2)members may call a special meeting. The city
auditor shall be ex-officio clerk of the commission and custodian of its records.
Copies of its records attested by him as clerk shall be competent evidence in all
courts.
