Ridgewood NJ, Proving that you just never know where or when you might stumble upon a juicy tidbit, two of our associates stumbled upon one of those can you believe this bits of information while walking together around Vets Field at lunchtime recently. A contractor was repairing the lawn sprinkler system where the walking path exits to Graydon Pool and when our associates stopped to ask what was broken they got quite an earful. Seems according to the contractor that someone forgot to add compressed air to bleed the system of water prior to last winter which resulted in water freezing and breaking several sprinkler heads. How many thousands will this cost residents to fix? Anyone being kicked in the ass for this or is it just business as usual with no one being held accountable.
