Like sheep. Focus energy and anger on the ridiculous water restrictions Absolutely no droughts, hasn’t been in years, steady demand even in the summer, just poor management.
Wake up folks. You are getting played. How do you think this will be when the apartments are built and demand does increase? I for one have given in, did no new planting this year, no flowers, and cut back the mowing. Landscaper and local nursery lost some business. 50k a year in taxes and I can’t water my lawn. For sale sign is up, will take what we can get and regrettable move on after 25 years. Only getting worse and council is useless
Perhaps Ridgewood Water Company can parlay our localized drought conditions into a reduction in the Village’s COAH obligations. Surely the New Jersey judiciary will sit up and take notice if Ridgewood’s soggiest were to stroll into court and cop a squat in the witness chair.
They should sell it, it should be worth it a good 60 million
Ridgewood Water is acting responsibly. If anyone was paying attention and stopped whining for a while, they would know that new management is addressing many of the issue associated with the decaying infrastructure and looking to the future. Rome was not built in a day and Rich Calbi is doing a good job. Sell it and all you will have is high-priced, heavily treated (chlorine) surface water. Is that what you want?
“High priced heavily treated water”. Those of us on the East side of Ridgewood already have that. It tastes horrible. If you let a glass sit for a short time, it becomes filled with bubbles. What is that from? The worst part is that our refrigerator filter does not take either the taste or the bubbles away.
