  1. I have heard that there are pending removal proceedings against Sheila Brogan. So even if she runs again and wins, she will be removed from the position. May be that’s why she has chosen to not run this time.
    Mohammed Mahmood is missing in action. I have heard that he never attends any meetings.

  2. Ridgewood vitally needs new people to fill the expiring positions. I know it is a totally thankless job and you may get criticized for your opinions, but the town desperately needs saving from all the things the present council has designated for it. The Habernacle Park is no longer a park for our children. Now they want to put a pavilion in for her? If the same Council members are in, they will somehow manage to put an artificial field in at Shedler. The vitally needed bridge to connect the communities on each side of the Saddle River will be stopped. What good is a beautiful new field if this side of Ridgewood can’t reach it except by walking on route 17N’s tiny amount of grass? If you want Ridgewood to stop raising your taxes to pay for present Council members pet projects, then Please Please step up and sign up. If you hate it too much when you get elected you can always resign—though we all sincerely hope you won’t!

    1. Habernickel is a joke. The whole park is full of campers and field trip kids for a business to make the big $$$ ( not ridgewood folks one individual)

      No longer a neighborhood or even a town park. We have been run out by a business that the town keeps giving money to

      We need help

      1. And now not only do your tax dollars pay for this businesses success with the low rent and free parking and use of entire grounds that are maintained by your tax dollars BUT Nancy Bigios wants to give them a pavilion for $370 thousand!!

  3. I see the return of loser Lembo in my crystal ball.

    1. Nah, lembo has pending removal process against him too. If he wins, he will be removed.

      1. Lembo may be removed from the police force?

    2. We could only be so lucky. We lost someone who actually cared about our schools and kids. What positives have been done since he’s been gone? Nothing. Oh well, I’m sure he’s happily moved on, plus who would want to volunteer just to be berated by this place?

  4. maybe with Nobody on the Board, the schools have a chance of actually improving…..

    1. That would be nice, the current members are useless.

  5. The board is not the greatest but left to the administration at cottage pl to improve anything is a joke. Look at turnover, they are there to collect big salaries and up their pensions then move on

  6. Come on Jim Morgan – Ridgewood needs you! Run, Jim, Run!
