Reader says So Voigt turned out to be a crackpot

So Voigt turned out to be a crackpot. We still got two very competent Council members and vanquished the previous Council majority. Big win for common sense. The Record and Ridgewood News are becoming more and more irrelevant every day. As are Mr. Halaby and the other special interests hanging on to the failed legacy of the prior regime. Please let’s just put a bullet in the head of Valley’s Master Plan amendment and let’s overturn the ridiculous high density housing debacle. Voigt is everything that we all hate about NJ politics. Shame on him for the campaign that he ran to get where he is.

Ridgewood Councilmen Jeff Voigt down the Rabbit Hole ?

At the May 24, 2017 council meeting I mentioned I would be posting the OPRA requests of my emails that Mayor Knudsen and her supporters have filed with the Village Clerk. At the May 10, 2017 council meeting, Mayor Knudsen mentioned in reading the emails she had obtained to the public, that they were deeply disturbing and hurtful. The emails she is referring to are my correspondence with Alfred Doblin, an editor of the Bergen Record from May . I do agree with the Mayor that they are deeply disturbing in that they demonstrate the lengths the Mayor will go to denigrate others. As far as them being hurtful, I believe the comments made in the emails are factual and are borne out in the recent actions by the Mayor regarding the flying of the gay pride flag. I will let you decide if they are either/both deeply disturbing and hurtful. Moving forward, each of the OPRA requests from the Mayor’s supporters will be posted on my facebook page as I receive them from the Village Hall clerk. The purpose of doing so is to ensure you as residents are informed, have the facts, and none of this is editorialized on as happened on May 10 and May 24th by the Mayor.
