Guam college board: business seats, eligibility limits

The Guam Community College board has seven trustees: six Governor-appointed members and one elected student. Two appointed seats represent business, industry, and employer organizations; four represent the general public. This makeup applies as seats become vacant, and appointments require the Guam Legislature’s advice and consent. Guam government employees and people whose service creates a conflict of interest cannot serve. Initially, three appointed trustees serve three-year terms and three serve five-year terms; successors serve five-year terms. The Governor fills appointed-seat vacancies for the remaining term, with the Legislature’s advice and consent. The student serves one year, without Governor appointment, legislative confirmation, or courtesy resignation requirements. The text sets the first student election in the 1999–2000 school year and requires the board to develop election procedures. Valid board actions require agreement from four trustees at a properly called public meeting with advance notice. The board can discuss litigation or impending litigation privately with its attorney, and trustees choose their chairperson. The law takes effect upon enactment; if part is ruled invalid, the rest remains effective where possible.
