Englewood Cliffs Democratic Councilperson Deborah Tsabari Plead Guilty To A Felony
The Californer/10090713

ENGLEWOOD CLIFFS, N.J. - Californer -- Under law, a felony is the most severe type of crime, however, Democratic Councilperson Deborah Tsabari never disclosed to her constituents that she was convicted of tax evasion.

Why did the Democratic party knowingly allow Deborah Tsabari to hold such a powerful role?

In 2018, Deborah Tsabari and Attorney Jimmy Song campaigned on "Financial Integrity" and claimed they will protect residents from "skyrocketing school costs from additional 600 apartments" sought by 800 Sylvan.  Please see: http://englewoodcliffs.com/wp-content/uploads/2018-Deborah-Tsabari-and-Jimmy-Song-Campaign-Material.png

Tsabari, the borough's finance committee chair and member of the affordable housing subcommittee secretly and illegally instructed borough attorney Albert Wunsch to settle with 800 Sylvan despite any public opposition. See: http://englewoodcliffs.com/wp-content/uploads/Normandy-Vlamis-Page-2.jpg

Days after instructing Borough Attorney Albert Wunsch to settle with 800 Sylvan, Tsabari and her Democratic Controlled Council unanimously voted and signed a resolution supporting the affordable housing plan to bring 77 Units to Hudson Terrace deliberately deceiving the public with their actions.

Now Tsabari is in charge of engineering solutions for affordable housing, the most contentious yet most powerful position on the council.  Property taxes are the largest own-source of revenue for the borough.  Source: https://www.taxpolicycenter.org/
