The board of county commissioners shall, after the organization

of the sewer improvement district, appoint a board of directors for

such improvement district to be composed of three (3) members, one

of whom shall be designated director, one as clerk and one as

member, who shall hold office for a term of two (2) years from date

of appointment and until their respective successors shall be

appointed and qualified. No person shall be eligible for

appointment to the board of directors who is not a land owner within

the district so formed. Vacancies on said board shall be filled in

the same manner as an original appointment. The board of county

commissioners shall have jurisdiction and authority to remove any

member from the board of directors for malfeasance in office or

conduct flagrantly inimical to the best interest of the district,

and removal by a member of the board from the district or inability

of such member to serve shall constitute a vacancy on said board.

Such board is authorized and empowered to manage and conduct the

affairs of the sewer improvement district, make and execute all

necessary contracts, employ such agent and employees as may be

necessary, adopt and establish rules and regulations for sewer

service both within and without the district, and generally, to

perform all acts necessary to fully carry out the purposes of this

act, including the right and power to contract with municipalities

owning and operating an established sewer system, or with other

sewer improvement districts for the proper handling of sewage. The

clerk of the board shall be the custodian of the funds of the

district, and shall give such bond as may be required by the board.

The board of directors shall make a report to the board of county

commissioners on January 1 and July 1 of each year, and the members

thereof shall receive such compensation as shall be fixed by the

board of county commissioners.
