The initial directors shall be elected to serve for staggered terms until the January first following the first general election that occurs at least twelve months after the initial election or the next succeeding general election respectively to represent areas of the water development district. Directors shall thereafter be elected to four-year terms at each subsequent general election to succeed those directors whose terms expire at the end of the year in which the election is held.
