Ridgewood NJ, it does seem like a lot of boards and committees for such a small town . Perhaps there is some overlap or perhaps there are some committees that have out lived their usefulness ? Do they represent special interests or residents ?
How many personal fiefdoms have been created ?How many residents serve on multiply committees ? Maybe its time to simplify and consolidate ?
