Ridgewood NJ, Today is Father’s Day, and Americans still see fatherhood as a vital role in a man’s life .A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 70% of American Adults say being a father is the most important role for a man to fill in today’s world. Just 17% disagree, but 13% are not sure.On that not the Ridgewood blog would like to wish everyone a happy fathers day
Now we know on which side of the political aisle the problem lies with respect to incivility in public discourse. (Rev. Jan, former Mayor Aronsohn, are you and your cabal of energizer bunnies paying attention?)
.
As if this circumstance wasn’t painfully apparent from early on in the primary process, through the general election season, and on into the transitional period.
.
So-called social justice warriors, many of them quite young, as well as battle-scarred political progressives have blood coming out of their eyes, out of their nose, out of their…whatever. Such is their dissatisfaction with the political transformation the country has voluntarily gone through after eight years of amateur hour America-bashing under Obama and a Republican party that has proven it can’t take “yes” for an answer (because it is inexplicably failing to line up behind Trump, the best thing to happen to them in many decades).
.
The attempted assassin was going after members of the Congressional freedom caucus. He knew where the true obstacles were that stand in the way of the retrogressive statist agenda he (as a true, though deluded, believer) shares with Pelosi and the rest of the paleoliberals in D.C.
.
Creating unnecessary political conflict, indeed stoking civil chaos, is the new priority of the progressives, and even the swamp-dwelling RINOs. Trump needs to bulldoze through all of it. He has the red-blooded American people behind him, even if Ridgewood has recently been overrun with emotional (if not chronological) teenagers.

RIDGEWOOD – A small residential street near an elementary school may be reopened to traffic on weekdays, a result of the move to full-day kindergarten.
The Village Council introduced an ordinance Wednesday that would limit the closure of Clinton Avenue to a single hour in the morning and 75 minutes in the afternoon.
New lines will improve reliability and ensure continued safety of gas service

Ridgewood NJ,Public Service Electric & Gas Company (PSE&G) will be working in Ridgewood to replace nearly two miles of old gas pipes with new piping – ensuring a continued safe, clean and reliable gas system well into the future.
Beginning on June 16, work will take place Monday through Saturday between the hours of 7 a.m. and 5 p.m., weather permitting. The gas main replacement portion of the work is expected to be completed by the fall. The paving and street restoration is expected to be completed in the spring of 2018.
“These upgrades are part of PSE&G’s three-year program to replace 510 miles of aging gas infrastructure throughout New Jersey,” said Joe Forline, vice president of gas operations for PSE&G. “After decades of being in the ground, old cast iron pipes can crack and unprotected steel may corrode. The new durable, plastic pipes will improve reliability, reduce the possibility of leaks, and ensure the continued safety of gas service for customers.”
PSE&G is committed to keeping customers in Ridgewood informed about where and when the work will take place. Residents will be notified when work begins in their area by mail, door hangers and social media. Customers can find more information, including a list of streets and video of how the work is performed at www.pseg.com/gaswork.
“The investments PSE&G is making to upgrade its aging gas infrastructure will benefit all Ridgewood residents by ensuring continued safe and reliable service,” said Mayor Susan Knudsen. “PSE&G is coordinating with the local police who will be directing traffic around work areas. We appreciate the patience of our residents while PSE&G performs this important work in our town.”
How the work will be done Before construction can start, the utility tests soil and digs test holes to verify the location of existing gas pipe. When this preliminary work is complete, PSE&G will begin installing the new gas lines.
• To upgrade the gas lines, PSE&G digs trenches, primarily in road surfaces, and lays new pipes block by block to minimize disruptions. There will be short-term road closures and detours during construction. Local police direct vehicle and pedestrian traffic. At the end of each workday, the trenches are filled in and protective plates secured on any open areas so people can safely drive and walk. Customers always have access to their driveways.
• When possible, the utility does not dig on properties. If PSE&G does have to dig on a customer’s property, the utility restores any disturbance after the service line is installed. Grass areas are repaired and seeded, and concrete or asphalt openings are patched until final restoration work is scheduled.
• After construction, a PSE&G technician needs to access the customer’s home to connect the service line and gas meter to the new gas main. The utility contacts homeowners to arrange a date and time to do the work. During this reconnection, customers can expect to be without gas service for about 4 hours.
• If a gas meter is inside, PSE&G relocates it to the outside of the customer’s home or business. A technician relights all appliances and makes sure they are working safely before leaving a home.
• When work is finished, the utility repairs roads with temporary pavement until the ground settles. This takes about 45 to 90 days. PSE&G then restores the roads with permanent paving in accordance with town ordinance and paving requirements.
### Public Service Electric and Gas Company (PSE&G) is New Jersey’s oldest and largest regulated gas and electric delivery utility, serving nearly three-quarters of the state’s population. PSE&G is the winner of the ReliabilityOne Award for superior electric system reliability. PSE&G is a subsidiary of Public Service Enterprise Group Incorporated (PSEG) (NYSE:PEG), a diversified energy company (www.pseg.com).

The Ridgewood Police Department is hosting the first “Meet the Chief” at the Daily Treat today, June 17, 10am to 12pm. Anyone who would like to come have a conversation in a relaxed and open setting is welcome. The Chief Jacqueline Luthcke will listen to any comments, compliments, complaints or community concerns in an effort to work together to solve problems.
….the fly would like to remind residents that that the “Reverend” Jan Philips has often been over heard disparaging Mayor Knudsen referring to Paul Aronsohn as the real mayor of Ridgewood . While Arosohn briefly held the title of mayor though his actions it was obvious he was not the mayor or Ridgewood .
The facts support the claim CRAB did target Ridgewood for “disruption”:
CRAB’s own meeting minutes going back to February of 2017 reflect the plan to ask the village to fly the flag in a public space, not over village hall.
CRAB then deviated from that to ask the village to fly the flag at village hall, a request they did not make of Glen Rock.
The village, rightly, raised concerns about flying the flag at village hall.
CRAB’s Jan Phillips, Janice Willet, and their supporters, including Voigt, then used that concern to label the mayor and deputy mayor as intolerant bigots. OPRA requests reveal Voigt ignoring and lying about an email on 5/4 from the mayor about flying the flag at Van Neste.
Facebook posts from Jan Phillips show she and her supporters knowingly took the mayor’s comments about flying the flag at village hall out of context in an effort to smear her. When called out that they had done so, they did not apologize or retract.
While the mayor and deputy mayor are clumsy communicators who have been their own worst enemy more times than not, they have been the target of Aronsohn and his library/garage/high-density crowd on this matter.
I will never forget Jan Phillips at the town meeting when she accused those who were speaking from their hearts against having that Godzilla garage built as GRANDSTANDING. I was one of those people. Not at that particular occasion, but several other town meetings. Residents standing for hours on busy weekday nights, for the opportunity to express themselves about what kind of future they want for the town they love. Our town, Ridgewood,
I attended a few of the civility meetings and felt that she kow towed to former Mayor Aronshon, excessively agreeing with everything he said.
I do not believe , from what I observed, that she is sufficiently objective to be the leader of a the Community Advisory Board, she is not sensitive enough to diverse opinions. In my opinion.
Ridgewood NJ, Amazon announced this morning they will purchase Whole Foods Market for $42 per share in an all-cash transaction valued at approximately $13.7 billion.
Whole Foods Market will continue to operate stores under the Whole Foods name once the transaction closes, which is expected to go through in the second half of this year.
John Mackey will remain onboard as CEO of Whole Foods. “Whole Foods Market has been satisfying, delighting and nourishing customers for nearly four decades – they’re doing an amazing job and we want that to continue,” Jeff Bezos, Amazon founder and CEO, said in a statement.
