Jackson Township's new mayor Jennifer Kuhn and new Council President Mordechai Burnstein have been voicing strong opinions against illegal rental units in the township. They are even launching a new department to enforce these regulations.
The Jackson Jewish Community Council similarly sent out a bulletin in the past number of weeks assuring everyone that the Township does not permit basement apartments "and there is no plan to change this policy."
Interestingly, a deep investigation into the matter reveals that Burnstein and Kuhn are not simply "anti-basement apartments," rather, they are pro a big supporter of their election campaigns getting to be the only one who can legally build basement apartments.
The Mayor and Council recently very quietly pushed through an Ordinance that permits Mordechai Eichorn to construct "Accessory Dwelling Units."
"Accessory Dwelling Units... provide homeowners the benefit of added income and an increased sense of security... [and will] expand the Township’s housing stock," the Ordinance vows.
But here's the clincher: The Ordinance expressly states: "Properties containing... preexisting... uses are not eligible for the construction of a new ADU."
You see, this is because basement apartments are only a good thing and a much wanted "benefit of added income" when Burnstein's big donor Eichorn is one building the home.
Eichorn and Burnstein also run a Political Action Committee together, raising money for their political aspirations.

So sick!!! Eichorn hasn't done enough damage to Lakewood, so now he's off to destroying Jackson?
He is one of the worst destroyers of Lakewood, he even messed up his own neighborhood where he lived. When will Eichorn stop ruining neighborhoods already? He is certainly to blame for lots of the extra traffic around town.
Jackson, save your town and stop these leaches from destroying what you have.
Who is Einhorn what is his full name
Would you stop what you are doing if you are making millions of dollars on it? Jackson frum residents are starting to wake up and see whats going on and so hopefully things may change. Thanks to the FAA for keeping on top of the situation!
