Subsequent elections or appointments in the reorganized school districts shall be for 1 member at large in the reorganized school districts until the school board meets the criteria of this subchapter. If it becomes necessary to fill a vacancy for any reason other than the expiration of term, the new member must be selected from the residents of the previously existing school district and in accordance with § 1054 of this title.
