1. The governing body of any municipality or county may, by ordinance or resolution as appropriate, provide for the appointment to the board of recreation commissioners of not more than two alternate members. Alternate members shall be designated at the time of appointment as "Alternate No. 1" and "Alternate No. 2." The length of the terms of the alternate members shall be the same as the length of the terms of the regular members of the board of recreation commissioners. If two alternates are appointed, their terms shall be staggered by the appointment of one of the alternates for an initial term that is a year less than a regular term. A vacancy occurring otherwise than by expiration of term shall be filled by the governing body for the unexpired term only. No alternate member shall be permitted to act on any matter in which the alternate has either directly or indirectly any personal or financial interest. An alternate member may, after public hearing if he requests one, be removed by the governing body for cause. Alternate members may participate in discussions of the proceedings but may not vote except in the absence or disqualification of a regular member of the board of recreation commissioners. A vote shall not be delayed in order that a regular member may vote instead of an alternate member. In the event that a choice must be made as to which alternate member is to vote, Alternate No. 1 shall vote. L.1991,c.284,s.1.
