>From Congressman Garrett ‘s Office

>Dear Friends:

On the eve of the anniversary of our nation’s independence, as we prepare to enjoy family and friends, parades and picnics, and, of course, fireworks, let us all take a moment to remember the men and women who make our freedom possible. If you know a soldier, sailor, airman, or Marine who is serving now to keep this nation safe or if you know a veteran who has made the freedom we now enjoy possible, please take a moment to say thank you.

May God bless the men and women in uniform, and may God bless America.

Sincerely,

Scott Garrett
Member of Congress

>Truck Ban….

>Police Chief William Corcoran and Village Engineer Christopher Rutishauser recently presented Mayor David Pfund and Village Council members with several recommendations aimed at improving pedestrian and vehicular traffic safety in the downtown business district. One of the proposed ordinances would ban ALL truck deliveries in Ridgewood’s Central Business District between the hours of 10:00 AM and 11:00 PM. Yes, that’s correct, no truck deliveries anywhere downtown for a 13 hour period, 7 days per week! It is possible the proposal would include deliveries being made by drivers for FedEx, UPS, and the US Postal Service.

>During the Village Council’s May 24th Work Session, Councilman Jacques Harlow publicly revealed that the Social Services Association of Ridgewood, Inc. hasn’t made a rent payment for their headquarters at 6 Station Plaza in over seven (7) years.
