Municipal officials of Midland Park, Wyckoff and Glen Rock are being deposed in the class-action lawsuit the towns filed against the Village of Ridgewood on May 11, 2012, claiming it was using water utility fees to shore up its municipal budget.
The lawsuit states that rate payers of the water utility of each town has been “saddled with the burden of increased costs to pay for things such as health insurance for village employees, police expenses, fire expenses, municipal attorney’s fees and engineering costs, none of which relate to the operation of the water utility, but, rather, directly benefit only the Village of Ridgewood.”
