Sec. 2.

    (1) The board may adopt rules governing its procedure, provide for the calling and holding of regular and special meetings, and provide for the general conduct of its business and affairs. The business which the board may perform shall be conducted at a public meeting of the board held in compliance with Act No. 267 of the Public Acts of 1976, being sections 15.261 to 15.275 of the Michigan Compiled Laws. Public notice of the time, date, and place of the meeting shall be given in the manner required by Act No. 267 of the Public Acts of 1976. Four members shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, but a smaller number may adjourn. An action of the board shall require a concurring vote of a majority of the board, and shall be final, subject to the governor's veto, unless reconsidered or rescinded at a subsequent meeting of the board at which there shall be present as many members as were present when the original vote was taken.

    (2) The governor may veto an action of the board within 10 days after its passage. By a concurring vote of 5 members of the board, taken within 10 days after the exercise of a veto, the veto of the governor may be overruled.

    (3) The board shall direct the manner in which orders made by it shall be implemented, and may employ and fix the compensation of agents and assistants necessary to carry out duties imposed by this act. The compensation of all employees of the board shall be paid from the state treasury in the same manner as the compensation of other state employees is paid.

    (4) Expenses necessarily incurred by a member of the board or by a board employee while traveling in the performance of an official duty imposed by this act shall be paid in the same manner as are the expenses incurred by other state officers and employees.
