THE RECORD
Ridgewood Village Council members are expected to voice their opinions tonight on The Valley Hospital’s proposed $750 million expansion, although a formal vote isn’t expected until next week, officials said.
A large crowd is expected at Ridgewood High School, where council members will weigh in on whether the hospital’s plan to double in size should be permitted through changes to the village master plan.
The council has several options: to introduce the ordinance, which would change the master plan; recommend changes to it; defeat the proposed amendments in the hospital zone; or take no action at all. If the council were to introduce an ordinance to change the master plan, the hospital would still need approval from the Planning Board to proceed.
