Any board may provide by resolution that the term of its trustees shall be 4 years. If the board adopts such a resolution, then if 3 trustees are to be elected at the next election or if 2 trustees are to be elected at each of the next 2 elections, one of the trustees elected at the first election, to be determined by lot at the first meeting after that election, shall serve a 2 year term.
