Ridgewood Mayor Vagianos Sworn In To New Term

RIDGEWOOD, NJ — Ridgewood Mayor Paul Vagianos was sworn in to a new term on Monday.

Ridgewood has a five-member Village Council. Every two years, the council chooses a mayor from among themselves.

“After all Paul Vagianos has done for Jersey, it’s clear that he is incredibly dedicated to making Ridgewood an even better and safer community for its thousands of families,” said Rep. Josh Gottheimer, who swore Vagianos in on Monday.

He added, "Paul has worked hard to lower taxes and costs for Jersey families, remove dangerous forever chemicals out of our drinking water, and support small businesses in downtown Ridgewood. After being reelected to a second term, I know he will continue fighting for our shared Jersey Values.”

Gottheimer and Vagianos were joined by Senator Kristin Corrado, Assemblyman Al Barlas, Assemblyman Christopher DePhillips, Bergen County Executive Jim Tedesco III, Deputy Mayor Pamela Perron, Councilman Frank Mortimer Jr., and Councilman Evan Weitz.
