Ridgewood NJ , its that time of the year again and we have already had one serious snow storm ,so the Village sent out a reminder on garbage pickup and snow removal. 

REMINDER ABOUT GARBAGE PICKUP DURING SNOW AND ICE EVENTS
We have already experienced our first snow and ice event. As a reminder, if it is snowing when you leave your home in the morning or if it is icy, please place your garbage cans at the end of your driveway for collection. The Village will resume rear yard garbage collection as quickly as possible after the snowstorm, but please continue to put your garbage cans at the end of your driveway until you have a clear path to them.  We appreciate your cooperation in keeping our Village employees safe.


REMINDERS ABOUT SNOW REMOVAL
If it is snowing or going to snow overnight, please do not park your vehicles on the streets, in order to allow our plows to do their work in clearing the snow.  All sidewalks in residential districts must be cleared within 24 hours of the snow falling. Please do not place snow into the street; instead, place it back onto your own property.  In addition, if you have a fire hydrant on your property, please clear it of any snow accumulation.

Reader says Tough times indeed. To make things worse, the leadership in Ridgewood has failed us miserably

Tough times indeed. To make things worse, the leadership in Ridgewood has failed us miserably. We have a trio of individuals that banded together to seek office to advance their personal agendas. Our Mayor seeks higher political office, our Deputy Mayor wants to build up the central business district and their third wheel ran to cast her vote for the Valley expansion. As a majority, they have publicly stumbled their way to ousting political adversaries. The Richie matter was embarrassing at best and their handling of the Village Manager firing was even worse. They’ve been caught having secret meetings with developers in violation of the Sunshine laws and accepting $1,000 fundraiser tickets in violation of their own gift ordinances. All they while they have failed to provide even the most basic services. They are likely learning a difficult lesson at our expense right now. We have garbage piled on top of old Christmas trees in unplowed snow banks. We have municipal workers that have never been forced to do more with less like anyone who’s worked in the private sector since 2008. We have mounting expenses being funded by tax payers that are at their breaking point. Hopefully the residents will see these 3 for what they are – individuals pursuing their personal agendas – individuals that are not at all equipped to deal with the difficult task in front of them.
