Emily Vivino Robert Steven Dooner Iolanda E. Paparo Samuel S. Walstrum II Ruth M. Garibaldi Schedler House (continued from page 3) while neighbors hoped for none. A compromise provided that the relatively flat high ground will offer two overlapping fields – not to be used at the same time – while the lower ground is left wooded with improved pond drainage and nature trails, some of them ADA-accessible. In 2009, council members, headed by then-Deputy Mayor Keith Killion, took the position that large-scale development of the Schedler property would have to wait until the economy improved and until some safe pedestrian passage from the center of Ridgewood over Route 17 to the Schedler property was available. The council agreed that the Schedler Property should be purchased to prevent development of that land into something less desirable and to save another parcel of green for Ridgewood’s present and future residents.
