the commissioner shall request the directors thus far approved and appointed to recommend
another person for appointment to the board. Each director shall serve for a four-year term and may be reappointed. Appointments other than initial appointments shall be made by the commissioner upon
recommendation of members of the association. Any vacancy on the board shall be filled for the remaining period of the term in
