How about the Glen Rock, errr ahh Ridgewood Fire Department issue?
Wi-Fi in Memorial Park in Van Neste Square and Graydon Pool? People should be enjoying nature, living in the moment, socializing. What the heck, Ridgewood!! Enough accidents are happening without it. Not to mention it’s an unecessary cost. Whose bright idea is this? Can’t wait to hear this discussion.
Award Contract – Tree Maintenance Services
Turf Replacement at Maple Park Field
$$$$$$$$$$$ time to refill the pockets
How funny – there is a presentation on purchasing process, and in the agenda – they have not listed who are they awarding the contracts to, and what’s the purchase price?
Synthetic turf? You mean the fantastically overpriced garbage that causes cancer in children and floats a million little globs of rubber into the water supply and people’s homes and lungs? Go for it!
Wi-if but NO street repairs !! Seriously.
No revision of lease at the gate house!! Has anyone even looked at it? Let’s put WiFi in that park too and give another freebie away
We sre lead by fools
Check the coffee in that building…
what is the complete streets program???
9:05
Compete Streets Program is likely a vision where RIDGEWOOD recalls the days where there was actually viable asphalt roadways ..latest demolition was undertaken by PSEG on the Eastern route 17 side of RIDGEWOOD Avenue via trench warfare.All predictable ..all mismanaged.
No street repairs but hey we will have wifi at Graydon. No traffic security cameras but who needs them when we have police tell us that if we don’t want burglaries of cars/houses we should keep the doors closed.
Paradise.
I hope the mayor and council read this post. That I’m a village resident on call for Valley Hospital 24 seven for emergencies. While at 2:45 AM Thursday I was called in to work to and all emergency which I always do. The problem was the roads were Rendez coming from Bel Air Rd. through the village the valley, I did not see any kind of contract are salting were sanding the roads . I made a phone call to the police department they told me that everyone went home and they will be back at 7 o’clock, I find that to be unacceptable there should’ve been so trucks working through the night in an ice storm.
Thank you.
Yours truly
Mr tax payer.
What about the shared services between the village Ridgewood in Glenrock. I was just informed if you days ago regarding the village Ridgewood doesn’t want to do anymore shit services with the borough of Glenrock. As a Glenrock resident for 45 years, and definitely in the past 30 years village Ridgewood and Glenrock and agreement and she had services with the operation of grinding yard waste and leaves. But that didn’t happen this year and we are all wondering why, nothing was brought to attention of the Glenrock council and mayor, and there’s a lack of communication between the village and the borough .Hopefully someone can resolve this thank you
What is this talk about county police.
Shared services
9:27pm – that’s not possible. Glen Rock Mayor is on a mission to make everything political. Thank god Ridgewood got rid of Glen Rock Mayor’s twin brother Aronsohn.
Political, what the fuck you think Ridgewood is. Do you have your head up your ass
