Ridgewood NJ, the League of Women Voters of Ridgewood will host a candidates forum for the Ridgewood Board of Education on October 18th. Questions from the audience can be accepted at the Forum that evening, or sent to ridgewoodlwv@gmail.com. up to 48 hours prior (7:00 p.m. 10/16/23). There are seven candidates running . Questions are important , the Village seems to always get bit by the questions no one asks . The other issue for many Ridgewood residents was the Leagues efforts to help eliminate the “School Budget Vote ” ,taking away one of the key corner stones of community involvement in the Ridgewood School System . This effort would seem to have invalidated the purported purpose the League of Women Voters of Ridgewood’s existence.

RIDGEWOOD — It’s not only newspaper reporters that are the watchful eyes and champions of transparency at municipal meetings these days.
The League of Women Voters of Ridgewood, a nonpartisan group that advocates for good government, has introduced a local Observer Corps program to stay on top of municipal news through a team of volunteer reporters.
“It’s intense work but if you like to write, and you’re interested in good government and love your community, it’s a good way to participate,” said Pamela Perron, coordinator of the local Observer Corps.
