Elections to Central Bedfordshire Council were held on 4 June 2009. This was the first elections to the newly formed council, with all 66 seats being up for election, elected in wards that matched the previous County Council electoral divisions, but with twice as many councillors being elected in each. All Councillors elected would serve a two-year term, expiring in 2011, when ward boundaries would be reviewed. The Conservative Party won overall control of the council, managing to win 54 of 66 seats on the council.
