Prior to his entry into provincial politics, LeRoy was active in municipal government, serving for six years on the City of Camrose Public School Board, including four years as Chairman. During his six year tenure as an Alderman for the City of Camrose, he chaired the Finance and Personnel Committee and served on numerous other committees including Family and Community Support Services and Parks and Tourism.
