” Voting no for first time in 40 years, for the sake of the Village.
The math is simple – – taxes get to the point where i decide its time leave my 4 bedroom, 4 bath house. Right now, the Village makes a lot off of my empty nest. But if they tax me to the point where i leave, then a family with three children move in at a cost of 10 to 15k a year each child to educate. That cost of 30 to 40,000 equals or exceeds what they collect from me now in taxes. The Village goes from positive income flow from me and my property taxes, to at best breaking even and more likely losing money. “

  1. Saying no now is useless, very little can be reduced and will not dent our taxes only hurt the kids. You should have jumped on the band wagon 40 years ago #toolittletoolate

  2. You are so right . Move on, enjoy your self. Join the caravan leaving Ridgewood, and especially New Jersey

  3. Me too. One person in a four-bedroom house will translate to two to four school-age children when I leave.

  4. Smart monies movin on out

    A shame

    Leaders have sold us out to the Developers who pump
    Up their egos for higher opportunities to clean some other communities out
