(a) The governing bodies party to an agreement entered pursuant to Section 34246 shall jointly appoint a tenant of the area housing authority as commissioner of such authority. If the area housing authority does not have tenants, the governing bodies shall appoint a tenant of the area housing authority to the commission within one year after the area housing authority first does have tenants.
(b) The appointment of a tenant commissioner shall be in lieu of the appointment of a commissioner at large pursuant to Section 34246. If a commissioner at large is in office on the effective date of this section, the tenant commissioner initially appointed shall take office at such time as the term of the commissioner at large shall expire.
(c) The tenant appointed as a commissioner shall serve for a term of two years, but only so long as he remains a tenant of the area housing authority. His successors shall also be tenants of the area housing authority and shall be appointed jointly by the governing bodies for terms of two years, except that a vacancy shall be filled for the unexpired term.
(d) A tenant appointed as a commissioner shall have all the rights, powers, duties, privileges, and immunities of any other commissioner.
