Neil Korotash
Neil Korotash is a teacher and former municipal councillor in St. Albert, Alberta.
Korotash is a lifelong resident of St. Albert.[1] He earned both a Bachelor of Science and a Bachelor of Education from the University of Alberta, and is currently a teacher of Biology at Morinville Community High School. Before being elected to office, he was active with the St. Albert Youth Council,[2] the St. Albert Youth Community Centre, and he continues to be involved with the Kinsmen Club of St. Albert.[1]
He first ran for St. Albert City Council in 2001 and was elected as one of six councillors from a field of fifteen candidates. At the time of his election, he was twenty-one years old and still in university, a fact that earned him significant media attention. Korotash was elected based on his views towards the controversial West Regional Road, as well as his support for improved environmental protection and more diverse housing options.
Korotash was re-elected in October 2004 and considers among council's accomplishments the successful construction of the West Regional Road and Servus Credit Union Place, along with a number of environmental and financial reforms. Throughout Korotash's six years, Korotash served as council's appointee to both the Community Services Advisory Board as well as the Environmental Advisory Committee.
In 2007, Korotash announced that he would not be seeking a third term on city council.[3] His term ended in October of the same year.
