Mayor of Sherwood Park, Alberta (Strathcona County)

Sherwood Park is not an incorporated city** — it is an **urban service area** within **Strathcona County**, a specialized municipality.

Therefore, it does **not have its own mayor**. The governing head is the **Mayor of Strathcona County**.

Current Leadership (as of 2024)

• Mayor: **Rod Frank** (elected October 2021, re-elected 2025? — next election 2025).
• Ward 1–4 Councillors represent Sherwood Park specifically.

Why This Matters

Sherwood Park (~75,000 pop.) is Alberta's largest "hamlet" / urban service area. It has **local advisory committees** but no separate council. All municipal decisions (taxes, bylaws, planning) are made by **Strathcona County Council**.

So: **Rod Frank (Strathcona County Mayor) is the elected head for Sherwood Park residents.**
