I think 5 years would be awkward in an 8-member ctte; you'd end up with:

  2010: 2 members appointed
  2011: 2 members appointed
  2012: 1 member appointed
  2013: 2 members appointed
  2014: 1 member appointed
  2015: 2 members replaced
  ...

4 years is easy (2 members per year), as is 8 years (1 member per year),
and 6 years isn't too bad (4 members every three years; or 2 members
every year and half).

Bumping the ctte size to 10 members could make 5 years work of
course. Think it makes sense to have the term proportional to the ctte
size though, so turn over can be regular.
