Sjur Hopperstad

Sjur Hopperstad (30 October 1930 – 28 September 2015) was a Norwegian politician for the Centre Party.

A farmer from Vangsnes, he was a member of Balestrand municipality council from 1960 to 1964. That year the area around Vangsnes was moved to Vik municipality, and so Hopperstad became a municipality council member there. He served as mayor from 1974-87. He was also a member of the county council from 1964-75 and 1980-99. Since 1992 he served as county mayor, and from 1995 as deputy county mayor.[1]
