33-10-204. Board of directors -- commissioner approval -- compensation. (1) The board of directors of the association consists of seven members serving terms as established in the plan of operation. Two of the members must be appointed from the public at large by the commissioner. The other members of the board must be selected by member insurers subject to the approval of the commissioner. Vacancies on the board must be filled for the remaining period of the term in the manner described in the plan of operation. In approving selections or in appointing members to the board, the commissioner shall consider, among other things, whether all member insurers are fairly represented.
