Email Circulates Calling on Ridgewood News to Cover Ethics Complaint against Mayor and Village Manager

Village of Ridgewood

Dear Neighbor,

I’m writing about the upcoming garage election and specifically about something that has happened which now puts the whole process into question.

On June 9th, a ‘Vote yes’ video and other materials were posted on our Village website, along with an e-notice that was sent out by our Village Manager, which directed residents to this site. To use government funds to make such slanted materials and to post them on a government website goes beyond inappropriate.

NJ Fog, a government watch group, has filed a formal complaint against Mayor Aronsohn and Village Manager Sonenfeld, which can be viewed here.

It is imperative that every resident knows about the situation.

So, I am asking you to a) share this email with every resident that you know and b) contact the Ridgewood News at 201-612-5400 and ask for either Alexandra Hoey or Jaime Walters to request that this issue be given a front page article, which it deserves. Please call them this morning as they go to print shortly.

Thank you for doing your part to protect our Village.

Sincerely,

Dana
