"(a)      At the regular meeting of the Cumberland County Board of Education in December of each year, commencing in December 1983, and annually thereafter, the Board shall elect one of its members as Chairman and another as Vice-Chairman for a period of one year, or until a successor is elected and qualified for each position. The Chairman shall preside at all meetings of the Board and carry out such other duties as imposed by law or by resolution of the Board. The Vice-Chairman shall preside in the absence of the Chairman, or at the request of the Chairman if the Chairman is unable to serve in this capacity, and shall carry out such other duties imposed by law or resolution of the Board. If a hearing panel is designated by the Board, as by law provided, that does not contain the Chairman or Vice-Chairman, the Board shall designate a member of said panel as presiding officer for that hearing only. The Superintendent of the Cumberland County Schools shall be ex officio Secretary of the Board and shall keep the minutes of the meetings of the Board and perform such other duties as Secretary as imposed by law or by resolution of the Board. The Superintendent and/or Secretary shall have no vote. The minutes of a hearing panel may be recorded by any person designated by the Superintendent and approved by the Board."
