Section 11.21.1.33 - CHAIRPERSON SUCCESSION

A. From among the three members appointed to the public employee labor relations board pursuant to Section 10-7E-8 NMSA 1978, the board shall appoint a chair to serve as the primary point of contact for the board's staff, to conduct the regular and special meetings of the board in a manner consistent with parliamentary procedure. In like manner the board shall appoint a vice-chair to serve in the capacity of chair in its absence or inability to serve and to provide for automatic succession when the term of the chair is up.

B. The chair and the vice-chair shall serve in those capacities for a period of one year. Upon completion of the chair's one-year term, the vice-chair shall automatically become the chair and assume the duties of that office. The past chair shall resume regular duties as a member of the board and the third board member, who has not served as vice-chair within the preceding year, shall assume that role.

C. Initial appointments under this rule shall be by seniority based on the board members' appointment letters. In the event of a tie, the chair shall be determined from between the two most senior members either by acclamation or by a coin toss supervised by the board's director.
