Editor, The Ridgewood Blog:
On Friday, August 1, The Ridgewood News published a letter to the editor entitled: “New driver frustrated by lack of village parking.”
Not surprisingly, the author of the aforementioned letter, Mr. James F. Schimmel, failed to mention that his family owns the commercial building located at 20-26 East Ridgewood Avenue, which is less than 150 feet away from the proposed Hudson Street parking garage.
Certainly, the value of said property would increase if the parking garage were built and rental fees for it could be increased as well.
Yet another letter writer who chose to omit key information from a letter to the editor about the proposed parking garage. When will it end?

Note: The Ridgewood News opted not to publish a response from me, almost identical to the above letter, regarding Mr. Schimmel’s letter.
