The fifth member of the commission shall be a citizen who is not holding office under the municipality and shall be selected by the other four members of the pension commission. He shall hold office for the term of one year. In case of a vacancy for any cause, the commission may fill it until the next election.
The commission shall hold its first and annual meeting on January first, in each year, and elect its president from its members and a secretary from the employees of the department or anyone from outside of the department, as the commission sees fit.
