Barring any unforeseen changes or expenses, Ridgewood property owners will pay no more than same amount of municipal tax dollars this year as they did in 2012.
The Ridgewood governing body anticipates it will roll out and introduce the 2013 budget and a zero percent tax increase at the May 8 council meeting. A proposed public hearing, in which residents can comment on the spending plan, and subsequent adoption vote are planned for June 12.
Dollar amounts were still being fleshed out when council members gave a literal “thumbs up” to the zero-percent tax increase plan on Wednesday, but the total budget will amount to roughly $45.3 million and a tax levy on par with last year.

Not a bad job considering there are built in cost increases, from labor and energy costs.
