Readers claim Valley “experts ” offer nothing more than job interviews
In the end, it doesn’t matter what kind of precautions are taken by Valley hospital or to what degree Valley’s hired experts sugar-coat their presentations (re: job interviews). Our neighborhoods, and lives, will be wrecked if this expansion happens. How do we know this? We live here, day in, day out.
We see what happens to the neighborhood when there is minor street or utility work being done (it is paralyzed). We see what happens when it rains (the streets are choked with traffic). Experts talk the big talk about following safety regulations and deferring to state guidelines, but we see the plumes of diesel exhaust, daily, coming from the trucks that currently make deliveries to Valley
How can anyone who lives here believe that this expansion won’t have a disastrous affect on our village?
A project that any fool can see is off the chart, others being considered that are at best questionable, “experts” testifying who do not reside here and could care less about the town, a councilwoman who may get to vote on something she should be recusing herself from, her next door neighbor who writes a letter doing her more harm than good, and a parking garage that after thirty plus years still is not built ! Is this made for TV or what !?
Wake up Ridgewood before this little gem of a town turns into a lot more than anyone could have ever imagined.
Or a lot less.
If you got “a lot less” from what the poster states you are, at the very least, not in touch with reality.
