The Kentucky Board of Auctioneers consists of five Governor-appointed members. All members must have been residents of the Commonwealth of Kentucky for five years, and four members must have been a licensed auctioneer for at least five years. One member is a citizen at large (consumer member) who is not associated with or financially interested in the practice or regulated business. The term of each member of the Board is three years and until their successor is appointed. When there is a vacancy on the Board, the Kentucky Auctioneers Association recommends at least three names for each auctioneer vacancy to the Governor.
