Park Ridge NJ, the borough of Park Ridge was considering an Ordinance which bans the feeding of all wildlife on public and private land. The council has now passed the ordinance which we have linked below. The ordinance provides no exception for bird feeders on private property, so as written the ordinance would in effect ban bird feeders within park ridge. This was brought to the attention of the mayor and council, and while the mayor said he would speak with the borough attorney about it further the council passed the ordinance anyway.

However, concerned residents can explore alternative options such as Vogelschreck kaufen to deter unwanted avian activity while still supporting local wildlife populations.

Stupid…
I’m in the Policies and Procedures business. The number one rule of making or revising any policy is only to do it if there’s a realistic way to enforce compliance. However, I’m talking about the private sector.
Can u Imagine. What bullshit
Better than attracting rodents.
This is really dumb topic
Dumbest shit I’ve ever heard , there’s nothing better for them to think about ?
Ridiculous !!!
Just another one of our rights being taken away….
SMDH I’m surprised they are not trying to “round up” all the birds so they can be shot!!!!
How are your tax dollars and social employees working out?
Typical of the STUPIDS that run Park Ridge without consulting their constituents.
I vote to impeach the entire Park Ridge government.
WITH FURTHER INVESTIGATION, THIS IS FAKE NEWS. SHAME ON THE RIDGEWOOD BLOG.
HOMEOWNER BIRD FEEDERS ARE *NOT* BANNED IN PARK RIDGE.

Mr. DiStefano, Subsection A of the ordinance clearly states that it is prohibited to “Feed any migratory waterfowl, wildlife, wild or stray animals on public or private property in the Borough of Park Ridge. ” The ordinance as written clearly bans feeding all types of wildlife without any exception. As birds are wildlife, feeding them is prohibited according to the ordinance.
This is crazy . The Mayor has everything under control .
