Ridgewood, NJ — Last week, Ridgewood Police Chief Forest Lyons joined the 40th District Legislative Team—Senator Kristin Corrado, Assemblyman Chris DePhillips, and Assemblyman Al Barlas—at a neighborhood meeting to address rising concerns about car thefts, bail reform, and overall public safety in the community. Organized by local residents, the forum provided an opportunity for open dialogue, community feedback, and transparency from law enforcement and elected officials.
