Fr. Mike Lopez, founder of Ridgewood-based food poverty non-profit the Hungry Monk Rescue Truck, has announced his candidacy for Council District 30, joining a growing list of candidates vying to replace outgoing Council Member Robert Holden.
Holden, who has represented District 30 in Queens since 2018—which includes Ridgewood, Maspeth, Middle Village, and Glendale—is term-limited.
