Question of the Week: If You Could Change One Thing in the Village, What Would it Be?

Taxes, parking, business climate, Valley, Graydon?

You'd be hard-pressed to find a village resident that doesn't enjoy living here for an incredible array of reasons, but that's not to say Ridgewood is without flaws.

The taxes are high, traffic can be brutal, parking is seen by many as a mess, village services have been reduced with the economic challenges, while the jury is still out on whether the CBD can fully recover.

Then of course, the 800 lbs. gorilla of the Valley question still dominates many conversations, as well as the math program, Schedler's status, field lights, flooding and turf, Graydon's present and future, teacher and worker contracts, subdivision applications cropping up, drug and alcohol use among many youth, pedestrian safety, and others.
