There shall be a panel of three alternate members
of the Planning and Zoning Commission, who shall be electors of the

of the General Statutes relating to a disqualification of members
of planning and zoning authorities or as otherwise provided by law,
the Chairman shall designate and seat an alternate from the panel
of alternates, but in designating and seating such alternate, he shall
choose alternates in rotation so that the alternates chosen by the
Chairman shall be seated as nearly an equal number of times as is
possible.
