He ended up winning a spot on the town council, though he was already serving on the Board of Education. .

Fattal was already a Detective Lieutenant at Millburn Police Department but wanted to do more for his community than just this. He went to Passaic County Community College. After his experience in the Millburn Police Department he has since pivoted into medical sales “with a focus on devices for the spine.”

To give a better description on why Fattal wants to help out he said, “I was very excited to earn the overwhelming support of the party to run for council in the third ward.” “As an active young republican in the town of Wayne, and given my past professional experience, I felt that my skill set would better serve all the residents of Wayne. I’m excited to hit the ground running to gain the support of the residents of the Third Ward.”

He was elected to the 3rd Ward Council in Wayne and will begin to take office next year.
