  1. When we get high density housing with 20% COAH, do you think that will increase or decrease these types of incidents?

  2. hey i’ve got an idea…why don’t we build huge apartment complexes and an enormous parking garage downtown so we can attract more of this

  3. I hated that boring peaceful atmosphere. Isn’t this great? We can double the size of our police force, too, and triple our property tax.

  4. This has happened in the past in town and just like these two that are mentioned do not occur with great frequency.

  5. I don’t know if this is a sign of things to come, but I’ve been here 30 plus years and I can’t remember any fights in a Village restuarant.

  6. It’s a wonderful life. Welcome to Pottersville.

    Fish is the new Martini’s bar.

    Guess whomis Potter?

  7. your comments are a classic example of having your heads up your arses. this “kind” of thing goes on daily in Ridgewood…you just don’t know it. drunken fights, assults and enough domestic violence complaints to fill your boots.
    30 years in Ridgewood and can’t remember a fight in a Ridgewood establishment…shows how much you get out.
    these kind of going’s on have never been reported publicly and the will continue to be buried so you can sleep well at night. guess what? you dont’ have a clue…

  8. Yea Right 5:37 FISH your typical high end restaurant. Just like Blend use to be.

  9. I get out. I have not heard of these things in downtown Ridgewood.

    I do remember a Ridgewood PD overreaction to the Thanksgiving Eve bar closing. They were shaking in their boots.

  10. Yea cause you really scare them 7:11.

  11. Oooh…a scuffle at a bar, and a couple yoots smoking a joint in a park.

    Fetch my clutching pearls and fainting couch, pronto!

  12. 5:37 I get out a hell of a lot, always have, and I’ll stand by my statement. “This kind of thing goes on daily in Ridgewood” is absolute BS.

  13. The Russian White House nuff said!
