to the Agency one elector of the City, which appointee shall serve an initial
term of one year. The City Municipal Planning Commission, duly constituted,
shall appoint, subject to the approval of the Board of Aldermen, one elector
to the agency for a term of two years. Thereafter, all appointees shall serve
