245. A member of the board of directors shall cease to be a member when he ceases to be a member of the Council. A vacancy occurs in the office of a member when he ceases to be a member of the board of directors. For the purposes of this paragraph, a person shall cease to be a member of the Council at the expiry of his term as member of the council of a municipality even if his new term begins immediately thereafter.
A member of the board of directors other than the chairman of the executive committee shall also cease to be a member if he fails to attend the meetings of the board for ninety consecutive days from the last meeting he attended. If a member attends no meeting whatever from the time he becomes a member of the board, the ninety-day period shall run from the first meeting he could have legally attended. His term of office shall terminate at the close of the next meeting held after the ninety-day period, unless, at that sitting, the other members of the board are of the opinion that it was impossible in fact for him to attend the meetings of the board.
If the member attends no meeting of the board of directors called within 30 days after the meeting contemplated in the second paragraph, a vacancy occurs on the thirtieth day; the secretary of the corporation shall notify the Council immediately.
