July 24, 2013 THE VILLADOM TIMES II • Page 5 Area Borough considers plan for multiple town garage Collision reported Two individuals, one of whom was a 10-year-old girl, sustained minor inju- ries as a result of a crash involving a VW Passat sedan and Honda Odyssey minivan on North Irving Street near Warren Place. Ridgewood police, fire, and EMS units rushed to the scene after more than 15 911 calls were received regarding the collision. The Passat suffered moderate damage and was removed from the scene by flatbed tow truck; the Odyssey had damage to its left rear bumper and fender and could be driven away on its own power. There was no report of a summons being issued to either driver. (Photos courtesy of Boyd A. Loving.) The Glen Rock Borough Council and officials are considering a plan for a munic- ipal repair garage that would be constructed and operated jointly with Ridgewood and possibly other local communities on land Ridgewood now owns in Glen Rock. “It’s still in the talking stages,” Glen Rock Borough Administrator Lenora Ben- jamin said recently. “It needs to be analyzed to see if a system can be worked out for all the towns that could be involved.” Benjamin said the key question from Glen Rock’s point of view would be to determine if there is enough Ridgewood- owned land within Glen Rock’s borders to accommodate the present Glen Rock Department of Public Works office now located on Doremus Avenue opposite the recycling area and the arboretum. Glen Rock’s DPW would, under the highly tenta- tive proposal, relocate to the common site with Ridgewood and possibly with other northwest Bergen County communities. Some months ago, Ridgewood officials began plans to sell the Ridgewood facil- ity on Chestnut Street, now deemed inad- equate, and to construct a larger and more efficient garage at the site of the Water Pollution Control area off Prospect Street in Glen Rock. The plans were discussed at Ridgewood’s open public work sessions for several meetings before Glen Rock was officially notified. J. KOSTER
