Ridgewood NJ, Village crews  were worked through the night and will continue to work all through today to remove snow from the streets.

According to Village Manager Roberta Sonenfeld the Village moved 250 truckloads of snow from the Central Business District to the Graydon Pool parking lot. Yesterday snow piles are particularly large and high on Dayton street and the Village started the removal operation section by section, so as each section is completed parking will be available.

Roberta when on to remind residents that ,” As has been the case in other large snowfalls, the meters are inaccessible and the mounds of snow against the curbs make it almost impossible in non-angled parking spots to get out on the passenger side of the car.  So please use caution.  The removal of snow from the curb area around the meters is the responsibility of individual business owners.  It’s a lot of snow and we clearly do not want this snow thrown into the street today, so we will be working with the businesses community tomorrow to address this issue.”

According to Village Hall the top priority Sunday was to make the school routes safe and particularly to remove any visibility problems around the corners. While the main streets seem in good shape and that the secondaries are in decent shape. The Village asks  In the event that they missed and area or a street needs more work , please email Linda Salvi at lsalvi@ridgewoodnj.net with your street information.

Sanitation and recycling are on schedule, and all sanitation must be brought to the curb. Please help any neighbors that may need help in this regard.

Nancy Greene, the Director of the Library got the Ridgewood library open at 1:00 yesterday.  There are concerns about icing in the parking lot as well as some of the paths so please check the library website for more information at www.ridgewoodlibrary.org.
