About Mayor Scott
Frank Scott, Jr. began his second four-year term as Mayor of Little Rock on Jan. 1, 2023. Mayor Scott is the City’s 73rd Mayor and is Little Rock’s first ever popularly-elected African American mayor.
During his time in office, Mayor Scott has worked toward uniting Little Rock’s diverse neighborhoods through expanding our economy, creating new opportunities for educational growth for Little Rock’s students, enhancing public safety and improving the quality of life and place in Arkansas’ capital city.
Mayor Scott has pledged to be Little Rock’s Chief Growth Officer, and has overseen the creation of more than 11,000 new jobs to date. Little Rock’s population has grown to more than 203,000 residents as the Mayor pushes jobs growth and economic development, making Little Rock a catalyst for the new South. New developments, such as Trex, Amazon, Trader Joe’s, Fiocchi, Topgolf, Elopak and more highlight the momentum of this growing and thriving city.
Under the Mayor’s leadership, the City established the position of Chief Education Officer and helped implement a Community Schools model in six Little Rock School District schools. These schools integrate individualized student support services, expand and enrich learning opportunities, and operate as a neighborhood hub to provide other needed trainings and services for students’ families.
Mayor Scott worked with the Little Rock Board of Directors to make the Little Rock Police Department the highest-paid municipal force in the State, and to provide LRPD with the equipment and tools it needs to protect Little Rock neighborhoods including the implementation of full-time social workers within the LRPD.
Mayor Scott has also worked to expand community programs to reduce violence as part of his holistic and comprehensive crime reduction strategy.
With quality of life and place as a priority, Mayor Scott has established a task force to address downtown development and density. Another task force is tasked with the goal of eliminating food deserts and ensuring all Little Rock residents have access to nutritious food. His renewed emphasis on parks and recreation has led to improvements at city parks and at the Little Rock Zoo, even as he works to identify and implement long-range strategies for War Memorial and Hindman parks.
Anything is possible if we unite vision and purpose to our potential.
