Thanks for the info.
This blog is more informative than the town.
Why didn’t I get a text or email from village hall ( I AM signed up for email and text)
Learn from Paramus. They ALWAYS text delays, road closures etc
Why would they do this during the school break?
Because every family in Ridgewood is presumed to be wealthy and on vacation?
