Is the stonewall at Citizens going to end sledding there? Where is the wall going? Who is donating it? It would be very sad to lose the sledding hill for Ridgewood children.
They better put a lot of money into repaving roads. Because the roads went to shit.And we are not talking about filling potholes.
How about repaving some of the parking lot s in the c b d .
user .,the parking lots are the filthy stepchilds of the councils neglect over the past 15 years..look at cottage place lot..worn out from towns hauling out all the revenue for decades and slopping in some spacke into those craters..On the subject of eyesores Town Garage private property windows are bombed out..par for the course..
How much is the increase in municipal budget this year?
How much is the increase?
HELLO
Classic Ridgewood…
What day is it?
The BOE budget is what? 120 K?
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
If you look at Glen Rock’s much much lower budget and see how high Glen Rock rates in the latest “school numbers” compared to Ridgewood–and even acknowledging that their’s is a much smaller school system, the Huge difference cannot be accounted for. Since Ridgewood no longer has a “tradition of excellence” in education the School Board feels making the school’s physical image the best and most expensive equipment MUST be had to achieve excellence in “something”. I am sure that these top notch bathroom facilities will make all the difference and our students will suddenly start ranking higher. And obviously we don’t have enough Assistants to our Assistants so the more we add non-teaching personnel the higher our scores will become. And if you believe any of that, I have a famous bridge to sell you.
