The statutes provide that the general administration and responsibility for the proper operation of the fund and the investment of the fund be vested in a Board of Directors of five persons. Directors serve four year terms without compensation for their services except that each Director is paid for any necessary expenses incurred in the performance of duties authorized by the Board. The Board is elected by a secret ballot vote of the active sheriffs and members of the Sheriffs’ Retirement System. At least one but not more than two of the Directors must be a retired member of the System. After the election and during the regular quarterly meeting, the Board elects one of their own as Chairman and one as Vice Chairman. The Board has all powers and duties that are necessary and proper to enable it, its officers, employees and agents to fully and effectively carry out all the purposes of the statutes governing it.
