>Citizens Park was acquired by the village through fund-raising efforts in the late 1960s

PJ, I know this thread is old, and perhaps I’ve missed smtg. I am pretty sure that Citizen’s Park was purchased with a bond issue from the VOR and a Bergen County grant. I do not believe that dime one was donated from any “long time residents” or even any “new arrivals” as 8:35am talks about. Just like Habernickel, we’re all paying for these purchases in one way or anohter (through our taxes). So, would be helpful to clarify, rather that to spread misinformation
There was some discussion at last week’s Village Council meeting about this. See below.
He noted that other major fund-raising initiatives have been devoted to Ridgewood’s parks in the past. Citizens Park was acquired by the village through fund-raising efforts in the late 1960s, an effort led by current Open Space Committee citizen member Frank Schott.

>Obama: Americans Not Better Off Than They Were Four Years Ago
(in fact things really suck)
George Stephanopoulos, ABC News: “And a lot of anger out there. There’s so many people who simply don’t think they’re better off than they were four years ago. How do you convince them that they are?”
President Obama: “Well, I don’t think they’re better off than they were four years ago. They’re not better off than they were before Lehman’s collapse, before the financial crisis, before this extraordinary recession that we’re going through.
