Aronsohn, Pucciarelli, and Hauck went after Tom Riche publicly and aggressively and in the most disgusting meeting I have ever seen. Matt Rogers told them to manage this in closed session but they wanted to have a public flogging so they went against the recommendations of our village attorney and they were like the bullies in Lord of the Flies that night. Riche did NOTHING underhanded. Everything he did for the Village was above board and with the full knowledge of the Village Officials. They treated Riche like a criminal and it was just a taste of the things to come from the three dirtbags. They went on to do the same to Bernadette Walsh, John Ward, Heather Mailander, and others. They should have been taken out in handcuffs the three of them. Their names and their faces should never hang in village hall. They were a plague, the three of them, and their toxic germs are still scattered around town. Never mind sweeping them out the door….we need to completely sanitize everything and everyone that ever had contact with them.

Remember, these are the same 3 dirtbags who accused former Police Chief John Ward of violating a local ordinance (the BC Prosecutor’s Office cleared the Chief of any wrong doing), allowed the Village’s former labor attorney to defile the reputation of Susan Knudsen during an open public meeting, claimed that Bernie Walsh tried to fix a parking ticket (all she did was to have a conversation with the then Chief of Police about the supervision of parking enforcement agents), and called Bernie Walsh a liar in public after Ms. Walsh stated that she’d observed Village Manager Roberta Sonenfeld and former Mayor Paul Aronsohn shouting at then Councilwoman Susan Knudsen in a hallway at Village Hall (which did happen).

As I stated previously, every single bit of trash they talked was bullshit. The biggest bunch of dirtbags ever.

  1. Roberta needs to update the Village of Ridgewood web site. It is out of date.

    This is a basic part of her job. What is she doing? Does she need another assistant?

  2. Just because the then Village Council “OK’d” a violation of our Village code and NJ state local ethics law does not make it okay. The conflict was much more than one isolated incident. It went on for years, from “before Floyd” in 1999 when the beneficial owner of Extel served on the Planning board and Village Council. Village code adopted more than 30 years ago prohibits both elected and appointed officials from doing business with the municipality. That ban would have covered Riche in both his elected status as a council member and his appointed role as a Planning Board member. The reason a ban exists is obvious. An individual responsible for voting on a municipal budget that includes funds to pay his own business can be in perpetual conflict of interest. So the entire council was complicit. And when the contract requires only one type of phone in this case Toshiba) it’s easy to abuse taxpayers by limiting choice of state approved vendors. If Extel wins contracts with the Village now, it’s fine so long as the beneficial owner of Extel doesn’t serve on Council or PB.

    1. including Mayor Paul Aronsohn , not worse than an ungrateful “dirtbag”

  3. this new council needs to talk to the work force of the village and have the in side info. no upper managers will be aloud in the meeting.

  4. aka mr bamboo.

  5. If the incident with the Village Manager and FORMER Mayor is true, the Village Manager has to go. The village government can not be a hostile environment.

  6. That incident most definitely did occur. Smile Mrs. Bobblehead has quite the mouth and quite the hot temper. Just like Aronsohn, Pucciarelli, and Hauck. All four of them exhibited terrible rage and behavior most unbecoming over the past four years.

  7. There were several witnesses to the shouting incident; it did indeed happen.

  8. Breath of fresh putrid, rancid, disgusting air…

  9. to 2,24, I like your words hostile, the top managers don’t like those words.

  10. Lying about incidents observed by one or more disinterested eyewitnesses is certainly corrosively antisocial. Arguably, this is the behavior of one who is clinically insane. Unfortunately, it has certainly happened in town, and continues to happen. Every indication around us in modern life tells us that the time is now, not to appear to be fighting over scraps like animals, but to be trying our hardest to exercise honesty and true charity. We must begin coming together as a society for the sake of our common interests and beliefs. We need to tell the truth, even if the truth is ugly or hard to hear. The alternative is so much worse.

  11. 7:43. Yes, we need the truth. And the truth is that the dirtbags were toxic and now they are gone.
