Ridgewood NJ, its simply amazing that the Ridgewood Planning Board has not posted the agenda yet on the Village website for march 3rd ,that according to Northjersey.com contains the draft of Ridgewood’s new master plan.
“The new master plan will cap nearly three years of work by a four-person subcommittee that includes Joel, Deputy Mayor Susan Knudsen and planning board members Joel Torielli and Melanie McWilliams.
