For those that say they do not want to give up the quality of Ridgewood water we would suspect that most of them drink bottled water instead of tap water. They should also know that during peak periods Ridgewood Water buys water From Hawthorne and Suez Water. In the past when restriction have been put in place a price increase follows. The explanation that has been give for this increase is that they didn’t sell enough water.
A reader commented , “I believe in conservation when it is fare and equitable. I believe when a utility cannot meet the demands of it costumers it should expand, if it cannot expand then it is time to sell to another utility that can meet its customers demand.”
It makes ZERO sense to implement restrictions in Ridgewood unless Wyckoff, Midland Park, and Glen Rock agree to do the same.
I wish I hadn’t finally been able to afford to make my yard nice. Everything is going to die.
Complete agreement with10:10am. If the water company is not going to do this to other towns then maybe the water company should be sued.
Ha! You people are absolutely pathetic ….put rocks in your front yard and stop pissing liquid gold all over your precious lawns that you over ferterlize and only end up sending killing nitrates back into your supposedly great water system. And besides, after the lawsuit the 3 other towns your bitching about are going to OWN Ridgewood water. Another Ridgewood milestone! How proud we are of the quaint little village!
Sell the GD water company already. I want SUEZ
Just sell it
