>Concerned Residents of Ridgewood (CRR) have decided to endorse Tom Riche and Bernadette Coghlan-Walsh for Ridgewood Village Council.
Over the last two weeks, representatives of CRR met with all four (4) candidates and discussed a wide range of issues; revitalization of downtown, parking in the business district and for commuters, the shrinking Village budgets, Graydon Pool, and the proposed H-Zone changes.
On balance, CRR feels that Riche and Walsh are the right people to be part of our Village council. Both candidates bring different experiences to the council. Walsh not only runs a successful business, but has the added responsibility of being a mother of children at Travell Elementary and BF Middle School. Richie, also a successful businessman, has a very strong record of public service in Ridgewood and has previously served on the Village Council. Importantly, both candidates are prepared to take firm positions on the important matters that are facing our Village today, rather than take a “wait-and-see” approach.
CRR urges its members to vote for Walsh and Richie on May 11 (Line #1 and #4).
