Reader Suggests Stop Complaining and Do What You are Told

DSCF4857

” I live by the motto “if you have to ask how much, you can’t afford it.” That’s why a lot of people move to Ridgewood so the high costs keeps the less desirable people out. Stop complaining about everything and find somewhere else to complain if your taxes are going up. I have houses in Paterson and Clifton for rent if you want to live there. Plenty of people love Ridgewood.

It’s a group of people that probably haven’t lived here for many years who want to change things. I read in another post that the biggest complainer, Steve Kim, doesn’t even send his children to the Ridgewood schools. I would love to know why he chooses not to send them to Ridgewood. He wants to expose everything but yet doesn’t think the Ridgewood schools are good enough for his children. It’s bad enough that people drove Valley Hospital out. God forbid Ridgewood has 21st century technology. “

Reader claims director of water In charge of the sanitation and recycling department

RidgewoodWaterLogo_061912_rn_tif_

“This is all dirty business. The bottom line is the Ridgewood water company is a utility. Everyone that works with the Ridgewood water company works for the utility company. They are not village employees they are utility water workers. My question is from our investigation why is the director of water In charge of the sanitation and recycling department. So what you’re saying is when sanitation and recycling are short in employees On a daily basis they can utilize water utility workers correct. Because they all fall under one. For what is the answer. Can someone clarify this please Or do we have another cluster to deal with.”
