   43-3-3.    Creation of board; members 
      (a)  There is created the State Board of Accountancy.
(b)  The  board shall consist of seven members, to be appointed by the Governor  with the approval of the Senate. Each member of the board shall be a  resident of this state. Six members of the board shall be certified  public accountants, all of whom shall hold a permit to practice public  accounting issued under Code Section 43-3-24. One member shall be  appointed from the public at large and shall be a person to whom neither  this state nor any other state has ever issued a certificate,  registration, license, or permit to engage in the practice of public  accounting. The person serving on the board on June 30, 2005, as a  registered public accountant member of the board shall serve the  remainder of the term to which such person was appointed as one of the  certified public accountant members of the board.
(c)  Each  member of the board in office on July 1, 1982, shall remain in office  until the expiration of his term and the appointment and approval of his  successor.
(d)  Any appointment or  reappointment of board members shall be for a period of four years. The  remaining portion of any unexpired term shall be filled by appointment  by the Governor with the approval of the Senate. Upon the expiration of  his term of office, a member shall continue to serve until his successor  shall have been appointed and shall have qualified.
(e)  No  member of the board shall serve as such for more than two terms,  consecutive or otherwise; and, for purposes of calculating the number of  terms served, the filling of an unexpired term or terms for a total of  more than 30 calendar months shall be treated as the serving of a full  term.
(f)  Any member of the board may be  removed by the Governor for misconduct, incompetence, or neglect of  duty. The membership on the board of any member whose permit to practice  has expired and has not been renewed, has become void, or has been  revoked or suspended shall be automatically terminated simultaneously  with any such expiration, voiding, revocation, or suspension.
(g)  Each member of the board shall be reimbursed as provided for in subsection (f) of Code Section 43-1-2.
