Ridgewood NJ, the village of Ridgewood has taken a significant step toward solving its long-standing flooding issues. Rep. Josh Gottheimer announced on Thursday that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers will study the village’s flooding patterns under the bipartisan Water Resources Development Act. This development comes after Ridgewood officials formally requested federal involvement earlier this year to address recurring floods along the Ho-Ho-Kus Brook and Saddle River.
