Mayoral history

The unincorporated village of Steinbach was governed by a Schulz (mayor) and Schultebott (council) from 1874 to 1947 when Steinbach was incorporated as a town (and later as a city). Steinbach's first schulz was Johan Reimer, while the longest-serving schulz was Johan G. Barkman, who served as schulz for 25 years. His grandson Leonard Barkman also later served as mayor. The following chart lists Steinbach's mayors since incorporation as a town in 1947.
