Frank Zampino is a Montreal politician and a chartered accountant. He served as the Chairman of the Executive Committee of the City of Montreal and the city's second-ranking official.
In 1976, Zampino graduated from Laurier Macdonald High School, an English-language public school in the east end of Montreal.
After studies in accountancy, Zampino served as City Councillor in Saint-Léonard from 1986 to 1990 and was elected Mayor of that city in 1990. He was re-elected without opposition in 1994 and 1998. From 1998 to 2000, Zampino was the president of the STCUM (Montreal's Transit Commission).
In the aftermath of the Province-Wide Municipal Merger of 2001-2002, Zampino joined Mayor Gérald Tremblay's Montreal Island Citizens Union municipal party. The organization is now known as Union Montreal.
In 2001, Zampino was elected to the city council of Montreal and as Mayor of the Borough of Saint-Léonard. Since then, he has served as chairman of the executive committee of the city of Montreal, responsible for finances at the city of Montreal, and as a member of the executive committee of the Montreal Metropolitan Community.
In January 2004, Zampino was appointed by Mayor Tremblay to preside over the committee on finance, administrative and corporate services and strategic management. This same year, Zampino served as the honorary president of the Montreal Open, the annual open golf tournament of Montreal.
In 2005, Zampino remained one of the campaign leaders of Mayor Gérald Tremblay's political team. His efforts paid off and Zampino was re-elected as city councillor and borough mayor and was re-confirmed as chairman of the executive committee. In November 2005, Zampino referred to the mayoral administration as "the Tremblay-Zampino administration."
