It is the intent of this act that members of any former county park commission in office in the county on the date the certificate is filed with the Secretary of State pursuant to section 1 of this act shall continue in office as advisory commissioners pursuant to this act, and, therefore, that each former county park commissioner is appointed as an initial member of the advisory commission for a term which most nearly corresponds to the time remaining of the term for which he was originally appointed as a county park commissioner. In any case where it is not practicable to appoint each former county park commissioner to an initial term as advisory commissioner nearly corresponding to the time remaining in the original term, the former commissioners shall determine by lot the initial term for which each is appointed.
