It Begins Ridgewood Residents Begin Canceling Bergen Record Subscriptions

Thanks to Dublin I’ll be saving more than $300 year by canceling my subscription to the Record. His two oped pieces are offensive and obviously distorted. As a longtime resident of Ridgewood I’ve been following village council for many years. It’s clear that Jeff Voigt is grandstanding. If he were really interested in the Village he would have sat with other council and discussed instead of spoon-feeding Doblin such drivel.
Doblin commenting on the pride flag shows how little he knows about the facts. Then I’d like to know exactly what is “the plight of the LGBT community in Ridgewood.” He goes onto to say “at a public meeting the mayor and two other council members showed reluctance to fly the gay pride flag in ridgewood, that’s what happened in the public meeting, the part the public sees.” Watching from home that’s not what I saw or heard. I thought the discussion was where to have the flag and the request to put on the flag pole at village hall. I heard Councilwoman Walsh say the gay pride flag should not be on the pole with the American flag and she offer to put the flag inside village hall. Doblins comment about what happened in the public meeting, ” the part the public sees” is funny coming from the editor of a newspaper. it’s all supposed to be seen by the public and the only person who seems to be hiding anything is councilman Voigt.
