village council meeting

Please tell me why and how anyone running for Village Council is not regularly and diligently attending council meetings at this point? Actually, for months and years leading up to this???
Planning Board meetings as well! It’s not as if the budget and village issues are not long standing, hard fought, deep seated and complicated!
Considering 2 of the 4 candidates are currently sitting council members (Susan Knudsen and Mike Sedon) you can be SURE they’re here. **Taking time from their families and putting in WELL beyond full time hours VOLUNTEERING to be here. No one, not in regular, long standing attendance, has any business asking for our votes.

  1. No-Show Harwin hopes to smear her way to a seat…that’s what Pathetic Paul Aronsohn is whispering in her ear. Other than a giant money losing garage, higher parking fees and taxes, and gay pride flags everywhere the law says they can’t go, what is her plan other than turning us into a super-powered SJW Hackensack?

  2. Some of us multi-task and watching and listening from home… Not a problem. Seriusly this is the most important thing you can write about?

  3. 1:18 These are the rules for running for council according to people that attend every meeting. Of course they think it’s important to do it, it’s what they do. Don’t worry, everyone else knows better.

    1. if you are to lazy to show your not cut out for the job end of story

  4. Ditto – – too lazy – – – too busy – – – too important, then leave. Can’t multi-task if you win. If you could, then a lot of us would also run for council. Can’t commit – take a hike.
    BTW – has anyone looked to see if she has voted in local elections and if so, how many?
    Or if she has donated to other candidates and if so, to whom?

  5. You have to attend if you are on the council…..
    .
    …unless you are in Africa on safari…

  6. Well the two challengers don’t attend meetings, but they sure do attend social events. Priorities.

  7. And we have done such a fine job to date eh?

  8. How many meetings or town events did sedon, voight or knudsen attend prior to committing to running for office? Bailing a son or 2 out of jail doesn’t count not does answering a complaints for maintaining poor property conditions.
    James you may be intimidated by a strong civil rights attorney but Harwin could be what’s in the best interest of those of us who actually own our homes and pay taxes.

    1. lol , nice try , abject failures, supported by vested interest losers

  9. Yep James that pretty much sums up the curtent council to whom you seem so willing to kiss up to-lol 3 amigos, fir you uts more lije, tu el tercer hijo ?

  10. Sabino Valdes you are clearly out of touch. Mike Sedon attended every single council meeting prior to running for office, and long after he was no longer a reporter for the Ridgewood News. Susan Knudsen likewise attended meetings and was also on the Zoning board. And Hache was a regular attendee at VC meetings in the months prior to his election. You, meanwhile, were nowhere.

  11. Sabine Valdez cover name fake account creep. Sedon and Knudsen were endlesslely invoved ahead of their terms. You complete mudslinging Uneducated fool.
    This matters because harwin is a Patsy being used for her religion by Paul aronsohn. Either she knows it and she’s gross or she doesn’t and she’s stupid. Take your pick.
    And you must be deep in her camp. To throw comments out about children. Scum. All of you. Go away.

  12. Harwin is clueless. Has no idea what is required. She’ll move in a couple of years.
