===North Hills Country Club controversy=== The city was involved in a lawsuit over the development of North Hills Golf Course and Country Club, in the southern end of the city adjoining [[North Little Rock, Arkansas|North Little Rock]]. A court date was scheduled in April 2008. Mayor Virginia Hillman repeatedly stated during her campaign for mayor for the special election that her plans were to put the issue to a vote for the citizens. A petition was circulated to hold an election on the issue, but the Sherwood City Council voted to go ahead with the acquisition despite Mayor Hillman's objections. The issue was last discussed at the Sherwood city council meeting at 7:00 P.M. on Monday, September 24, 2007. A re-zoning sign was placed on the North Hills property the week before Christmas of that year. On July 21, 2008, the Sherwood City Council approved an ordinance authorizing the settlement of all litigated claims related to the property and structures commonly referred to as North Hill Country Club, which allowed the City of Sherwood to purchase of this property. Since the spring of 2010, the city operates the property as ''The Greens at North Hills Municipal Golf Course''.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.arkansaspreservation.com/historic-properties/_search_nomination_popup.aspx?id=2544 |title=Sylvan Hills Country Club Golf Course |publisher=Arkansas Historic Preservation Program |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150203172656/http://www.arkansaspreservation.com/historic-properties/_search_nomination_popup.aspx?id=2544|archive-date=February 3, 2015|url-status=dead|access-date=December 9, 2015}}</ref> On July 28, 2010, the originally named ''[[Sylvan Hills Country Club Golf Course]]'' constructed in 1927 was listed on the [[National Register of Historic Places listings in Pulaski County, Arkansas|National Register of Historic Places]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.todaysthv.com/news/story.aspx?storyid=113069 |title=Sylvan Hills Country Club golf course, Tyronza Commercial Historic District listed as historic|work=THV |publisher=Arkansas Television Company |access-date=December 9, 2015}}</ref>
