Mark Shepherd is Clearfield's mayor; the city roster shows service beginning in 2014. The city lists him as a board member of the Utah Defense Alliance and North Davis Fire District and a member of the Utah League of Cities and Towns executive board, and the National League of Cities lists him on its 2026 board of directors.
Clearfield's council voted 4–0 in June to dissolve Redevelopment Project Area 8, which stopped collecting tax increment in December 2025. A staff memo said about $1 million remained, and state law requires any funds unspent at the end of the dormancy period to be returned to taxing entities.
