WINE BOARD MEMBERSHIP TERMS; VACANCIES (§ 3.2-3002)

Initial appointments of nonlegislative citizen members to the Wine Board shall
be staggered as follows: six nonlegislative citizen members shall be owners or
operators of wineries or farm wineries in Virginia, two of whom shall serve for
terms of three years, two shall serve for terms of two years, and two shall
serve a term of one year; and three nonlegislative citizen members shall be
grape growers with no controlling financial interest in a winery or farm winery,
one of whom shall serve a term of three years, one shall serve a term of two
years, and one shall serve a term of one year. Thereafter, nonlegislative
citizen members shall be appointed for a term of four years. The Commissioner
shall serve a term coincident with his term of office. Appointments to fill
vacancies, other than by expiration of a term, shall be for the unexpired terms.
All members may be reappointed. No nonlegislative citizen member shall serve
more than two consecutive four-year terms. The remainder of any term to which a
member is appointed to fill a vacancy shall not constitute a term in determining
the member&#8217;s eligibility for reappointment. Vacancies shall be filled in
the same manner as the original appointments.
