      board  shall  be  a  body  corporate  and politic, constituting a public
      benefit  corporation,  and  its  existence  shall  commence   upon   the
      appointment  of  the  members  as herein provided. It shall consist of a
      chairman and six other members all of whom shall  be  appointed  by  the
      mayor  with  the  consent  of the city council. Initially, three members
      shall be appointed for six years; two members for five  years;  and  two
      members  for  four  years. At the expiration of such terms, the terms of
      office of their  successors  shall  be  six  years.  Each  member  shall
      continue  to  serve  until  the  appointment  and  qualification  of his
      successor.  Vacancies  in  such  board  occurring  otherwise   than   by
      expiration of term shall be filled for the unexpired term. The mayor, or
      his  designated  representative from the city council, shall serve as an
      ex officio, nonvoting member of the board while in office. The board may
      delegate to one or more of its members, or to its officers,  agents  and
      employees,  such powers and duties as it may deem proper. Members of the
      board shall be entitled to no compensation for their services, but shall
      be entitled to reimbursement for their  actual  and  necessary  expenses
      incurred  in the performance of their official duties. The powers of the
      authority shall be vested in and exercised by a majority of  the  voting
      members  of  the  board then in office. The authority, and its corporate
      existence, shall  continue  only  for  a  period  of  fifty  years,  and
      thereafter,  until  all its liabilities have been met and its bonds have
      been paid in full or such  liabilities  or  bonds  have  been  otherwise
      discharged,  except that no additional liabilities may be incurred after
      the termination of its corporate existence. Upon its ceasing  to  exist,
      all its rights and property shall pass to the city.
