Ridgewood NJ, Ridgewood Police Patrol Officer Michael Karcher was dispatched to assist in the rescue of a canine who’d gotten stuck between two (2) parallel fences in the rear of Ridgewood High School on Monday afternoon, 4/27. A bystander kept the pooch occupied with dog treats while Officer Karcher located its owner. The owner and uninjured Labrador were successfully reunited without injury to either. Reportedly, the dog had gotten tired of Governor Murphy’s “stay at home” order and crawled through a hole in one of the fences.

Ridgewood NJ, A devastating medical episode apparently caused the driver of a KIA Sportage to lose control of the vehicle and crash into a concrete wall on the exit ramp of Route 17 northbound to Linwood Avenue westbound in Ridgewood on Saturday afternoon, 04/25. Personnel from Ridgewood Police, Ridgewood EMS, and Ridgewood Fire Department, along with a paramedic team from The Valley Hospital, rushed to aid the seemingly lifeless victim, who was rushed by ambulance to The Valley Hospital. A tow truck removed the wrecked SUV from the roadway. All traffic was diverted away from the exit ramp while emergency personnel were engaged in performing life saving procedures.

Ridgewood NJ, The Village Code of the Village of Ridgewood Section 105-13, requires that all owners of dogs must immediately and properly place their pet’s solid waste, which has been deposited onto public or private property, into a suitable container (plastic bag) and then disposed of in a refuse container. It also provides for a fine of up to $500 for not doing so. Recently, there have been many pet owners who are not picking up after their pets and/or placing the bags with solid waste into their neighbor’s bushes or leaving the bag on the ground. At this very challenging time, please do the right thing by picking up after your dog and disposing of it properly.

Dear Ridgewood School Community,
While we have not received any official notification from the Governor, I sense that people are slowly coming to the conclusion that schools may not reopen and remote learning may continue for the duration of the school year. Governor Cuomo stated in one of his press conferences that particular challenges or events define many generations. The Spanish Flu, World War II, the Vietnam War, and 9/11 are examples of historical events that had a lasting impact; similarly, this global pandemic will be a landmark moment for this generation.

Also, see the attached flyer about the Be Safe; Be Counted Zoom event that is being hosted by the Ridgewood Public Library tonight at 7:00 pm. Don’t forget to send your redacted “receipt” to your principal or just let your principal know it is complete. Let’s see which school has the highest percentage of completed questionnaires. If you have multiple children in a school, each one counts. If you have children in multiple schools, send the receipt to each principal.
Or you can respond by phone at 844-330-2020.

Ridgewood NJ, Tony Loving made some interesting comments in the It takes a Ridgewood Village Facebook group, “During an April 22nd Village Council discussion about allocating spaces in the new Hudson Street parking garage, not a single Council member mentioned the potential long term impact COVID-19 may have on the demand for parking spaces throughout the Village’s Central Business District and at the train station. Whether we like to admit it or not, demand for parking spaces in Ridgewood may never be anything like it was pre-pandemic. Many Village residents may be working from home permanently, or commuting to their NYC offices very infrequently. Demand for parking by shoppers and diners, particularly diners, may never reach pre-pandemic levels. Village Council members need to immediately revisit their plan for the allocation of parking spaces, and make revisions based upon current events. Allocation proposals developed in the garage’s pre-construction phase should be thrown out of the window at this point in time. Unfortunately, when the dust settles, there may be an excess number of parking spaces. If that’s the case, consideration should be given to re-purposing one or more surface parking lots.”
