     3  follows:
     4    (b) Members of the board shall serve [at the pleasure of the  appoint-
     5  ing authority] for a term of three years, at which point such membership
     6  position  shall  be  subject  to reappointment.   Vacancies on the board
     7  shall be filled in the same manner as the original  appointment  once  a
     8  member's term has expired, or if a member resigns before his or her term
     9  has  expired.    Members of the board shall receive no compensation, but
    10  may be reimbursed for actual and  necessary  expenses  incurred  in  the
    11  performance  of their duties within amounts appropriated therefor. As of
    12  the effective date of the chapter of the laws of two thousand twenty-one
    13  which amended this subdivision, all appointees who are currently serving
    14  on the board shall be subject to the term limit set  forth  pursuant  to
    15  this section.
    16    §  2.  This  act  shall take effect on the sixtieth day after it shall
    17  have become a law.
