Lisyanskiy accuses Treyger of being ‘bought’ by real estate developers
The race to succeed Domenic Recchia in the City Council is turning nasty, with one candidate accusing another of being “bought and paid for” by real estate tycoons bent on building up Coney Island for their own gain.
John Lisyanskiy, a City Council aide, charged that fellow Democrat Mark Treyger is going to become a puppet of ruthless developers.
Treyger, a New Utrecht High School civics teacher, shot back that his rival’s attacks on him are “laughable.”
