Donna Smith to replace Jewell Turner as Gardiner’s deputy town clerk

The Town of Gardiner now has a mother/daughter team volunteering on the Parks and Recreation Committee. New member Toni Benevento, whose experiences working as a planner in Springdale, Utah, at the gateway to Zion National Park, were profiled in these pages in January, has recruited her mom, Trish Benevento, to assist on the committee as well. Both their appointments were formalized at the April 6 Gardiner Town Board meeting. Toni’s term will expire in 2024, Trish’s term in 2025.

At the same meeting, Open Space Committee member Tara Hoey was reappointed for a new term that will end in 2026. The hiring of Bruce Terwilliger as Gardiner’s new full-time building inspector/code enforcement officer was also approved on April 6. As Terwilliger steps in, current BI/CEO Andy Lewis will step down to part-time status, according to town supervisor Marybeth Majestic.

Frances Marion Platt

Frances Marion Platt has been a feature writer (and copyeditor) for Ulster Publishing since 1994, under both her own name and the nom de plume Zhemyna Jurate. Her reporting beats include Gardiner and Rosendale, the arts and a bit of local history. In 2011 she took up Syd M’s mantle as film reviewer for Alm@nac Weekly, and she hopes to return to doing more of that as HV1 recovers from the shock of COVID-19. A Queens native, Platt moved to New Paltz in 1971 to earn a BA in English and minor in Linguistics at SUNY. Her first writing/editing gig was with the Ulster County Artist magazine. In the 1980s she was assistant editor of The Independent Film and Video Monthly for five years, attended Heartwood Owner/Builder School, designed and built a timberframe house in Gardiner. Her son Evan Pallor was born in 1995. Alternating with her journalism career, she spent many years doing development work – mainly grantwriting – for a variety of not-for-profit organizations, including six years at Scenic Hudson. She currently lives in Kingston.
