(2) does not maintain during the service on the board the qualifications required by Section 691.002(a) for appointment to the board;
(3) violates a prohibition established by Section 691.004;
(4) cannot discharge the member's duties for a substantial portion of the term for which the member is appointed because of illness or disability; or
(5) is absent from more than half of the regularly scheduled board meetings that the member is eligible to attend during any two calendar years, unless the absence is excused by a majority of the board members.
(b) The validity of an action of the board is not affected by the fact that it is taken when a ground for removal of a member of the board exists.
(c) If the secretary-treasurer of the board believes that a potential ground for removal exists, the secretary-treasurer shall notify the chairman of the board of that ground. The chairman shall notify the chief executive officer of the institution represented by that member that a potential ground for removal exists.
