I don't think it's quite that simple, Oscar.
The same announcement says: "Both the community-elected and chapter-
selected seats have a duration of two years. These seats will expire
in alternating years, which means that community-elected seats will be
up for renewal on the July 1st 2009, 2011, and 2013, and chapter-
selected seats will be up for renewal on July 1st 2010, 2012, 2014,
etc."
It doesn't say anything about filling seats upon resignation or
retirement.
A strict construction reading will not be helpful here, I think.

I expect we will consider various
options on whether and how to fill the vacancy at our next meeting,
which is scheduled for October in San Francisco.
"various options"? well, it seems rather simple to me:
looking at
read
* "Three seats elected by you, the community"
one of these now being vacant, new elections are called for imho...
all the best,
