A former City of Burlington employee advised us earlier today that former city council member Carol D’Amelio passed on December 9th.

In the photograph, D’Amelio is seen with former Councillor Blair Lancaster, touring the Pier when it opened in 2010.  The two women toured the observation deck together.

D’Amelio gave up her Council seat in 2010 to run against then Mayor Cam Jackson and while she did better than Jackson the city wanted a new look and chose Rick Goldring.
