Page 10 THE VILLADOM TIMES II & III • March 17, 2010 Ridgewood Council pulls ordinances on paid parking for study by John Koster The Ridgewood Village Council pulled two ordinances on paid parking due to objections about constraints on parking at Graydon Pool and a proposed fee of $425 per school year for Ridgewood High School students at the Graydon lots. The ordinances had already been pulled for further study when several teachers and parents of younger children spoke at the council meeting. Those who spoke said that charging fees for parking at Graydon was sending the wrong message to high school students and families with younger children. Council members had also heard these messages by e-mail or letter and said they wanted to discuss the ordinances further before deciding whether to introduce them. One ordinance would have established permit parking in the Graydon North and Graydon South lots from 7 a.m. until 3 p.m. Monday through Friday from Sept. 1 through June 25. The ordinance would also have established 16 spaces in the Graydon South lot with two-hour parking restrictions and an escalating schedule to be enacted as part of the ordinance. The second ordinance would have established a $425 fee per school year for Ridgewood High School students at both the Graydon South and Graydon North parking lots. The Graydon lots on either side of Linwood Avenue function as backup parking lots for the larger lot behind Ridgewood Village Hall and the Ridgewood Parking Library, both of which sometimes experience parking crunches during programs at the library and sports events at Veterans Field. Another factor is revenue: Ridgewood, like the other towns in Northwest Bergen County, is seeking all viable means of increasing revenue without a negative impact on the quality of life.
