Ind. Code § 36-10-3-6
An individual who is appointed a member serves at the pleasure of the member's appointing authority as long as:
(2) the board, committee, or body that appointed the individual retains all of the same members who served on the board, committee, or body when the individual was appointed.
If subdivision (1) or (2) does not apply, the member may be removed only for cause, upon specific written charges filed against the member. The charges shall be filed with and heard by the appointing authority, unless the appointing authority is bringing the charges. If the appointing authority is bringing the charges, the unit's fiscal body shall appoint a hearing officer. The person to hear the charges shall fix a date for a public hearing and give public notice at least ten (10) days in advance of the hearing. At the hearing the member is entitled to present evidence and argument and to be represented by counsel.
