The Rossmoor Community Services District has appointed Sharon L. Landers as its Permanent General Manager, following her service as Interim GM since May 2025.
The RHA is glad to welcome Ms Landers on a more permanent basis to manager our District. Stability and forward progress is critical for Rossmoor’s parks and facilities and we have already seen her impact on Rossmoor. Â
Landers brings more than twenty-five years of senior executive public service experience, including leadership roles as City Manager of Carson, Assistant City Manager of Irvine, and Interim Executive Officer for the Bay Area Air Quality Management District, which serves nine counties throughout the region.
In just a few months with Rossmoor, Landers has already helped accelerate several long-standing community priorities. She completed the planning phase for the Rossmoor Park Canopy project—slated to break ground this December—identified cost-saving opportunities within the budget, and re-established long-term planning and policy practices that support steady stewardship of the community’s parks and shared infrastructure. Residents have noted her clear communication style and her thoughtful, steady approach to community concerns.
Landers is also an ICMA-Credentialed Manager, a professional designation reflecting her commitment to ethical leadership, public transparency, and continued learning in local government. Earlier this fall, she was recognized nationally as one of the Top Ten Leadership Trailblazer Award finalists by the League of Women in Government and was honored at the ICMA Annual Conference in Tampa, Florida.
Rossmoor homeowners, families, and community groups look forward to the continued progress and collaboration her leadership supports.
