Dear Ridgewood School Community,

Trenton NJ, New Jersey Realtors housing data for March confirms the market has taken a hit due to pandemic restrictions in the state, but the true picture of the impact likely won’t be clear until the April and May data becomes available.

“When the restrictions began to be implemented in the beginning of March, there was still a lot of business in the pipeline,” said New Jersey Realtors Chief Executive Officer Jarrod Grasso. “You can tell from the data that this is not a typical March when we normally begin to see the spring selling season kick off.”

Trenton NJ, Senator Joe Pennacchio, while applauding the Governor for opening up parks, is calling on the Murphy Administration to begin reinstating “elective” surgeries in the state.

“We are finally allowing people to get out and walk in our parks and reap the physical and emotional health benefits of exercise. Now it’s time to prioritize the general health of the population and the fiscal stability of our essential hospitals,” said Senator Pennacchio (R-26). “With the emphasis on the virus, at-risk patients have not had access to important and necessary procedures. It’s time to allow people who are not infected to get the care they need from hospitals, health centers, doctors, dentists and eye doctors.”
