2001 Edmonton municipal election
The 2001 Edmonton municipal election was held on October 15, 2001 to elect a mayor and twelve councilors to sit on Edmonton City Council , nine trustees to sit on the public school board, seven trustees to sit on the separate school board, and seven members of the Capital Health Board of Directors.
This election was the first, and to date only, election in which directors were elected to the boards of Alberta 's Regional Health Authorities. After this election, the provincial government returned to appointing all members of these boards directly.
