>…Is it just me or do all contractors hate doing business in Ridgewood because of the hoops they have to go through and the delays that are encountered?This issues continues to be brought to the fly over and over .I have heard many people complaining about the ridiculous amount of time it takes to get approval .This is seriously impacting business in town. I’ve heard stories about how an application stays on the bottom because others get bumped to the top, due to inside contacts at the Village Hall. The staff in the Building Dept. all appears to have gone to the DMV school of customer service. I’m all for maintaining high standards of construction in Ridgewood, but the time it takes to get approvals is absurd.
