Ridgewood NJ, Neighbor, please help and share! The destruction of approximately 250+ trees left fellow residents and their homes exposed to Route 17 and hazardous elements.
It is a violation of State and Village Code to remove a mandated buffer. In utter disregard of residents, the laws of this state and municipal land use approvals, the owners unilaterally truncated the required buffer (as seen in picture).
On 5/17/18, 4:30pm, this matter will be heard at Ridgewood Municpal Court (the public can attend). Please sign this online petition asking the Village of Ridgewood to fully enforce code and order full restoration of the required buffer. You can also print a copy of the online letter and PM me for pickup or mailing address.
