member’s position on the board is deemed vacated if the member fails to
attend three consecutive meetings without being excused by the board.In the
event of a vacancy on the board, either at the end of the board
member’s
regular term, or if the seat is vacated by resignation or
non-attendance, the
borough clerk will advertise for replacement board member(s) as set out
in HBC

trustees will then review all applications for new board member(s),
making
recommendations for appointment to the mayor. The
mayor, after reviewing all applications, and
considering the
board’s recommendation(s), appoints a new member or members(s) subject
