of the Board shall be residents of the municipality and shall serve

the term. A member of the Board may be removed from office for incompetence,
neglect of duty, or malfeasance in office. An action for the removal
of such officer may be brought, upon resolution of the City Council,
in the District Court of the County. The Board shall have such other
powers and duties as may be prescribed by state law. (Neb. RS 3-501
