Update from the Town Supervisor

Letter from the Town Supervisor:

May 10, 2024:

Here it is May 10th, some days it feels like summer is here while others feel like it’s winter again being rainy, cold and damp.  

Things in Gardiner are buzzing.  We went live with a new financial management system (Edmunds GovTech) on March 1st.  Our new municipal bookkeeper, Arlene Weber started in April and we continue to quote Arlene, “fix and forge forward.” We also went live with a new Cyber Security firm (Logically) on May 1st.  

The POLY system used for Zoom meetings has been updated, and thanks goes to Rob Boetcher and Steve Hollander who installed the new system.  Gardiner has great volunteers. 

The new basketball court at Majestic Park has finally been coated and striped and it looks amazing.  We are also working on upgrading the paths to ADA compliant paths in the park, improved fencing AND we will be adding a Pump Track within the next few months.  Great things are happening with our Parks & Recreation department, with assistance from our Highway Department.  

Registration is currently open for our Summer Recreation Program for which we are in dire need to hire a lifeguard.  If interested please reach out to me asap by phone at (845) 255-9675 ext 101, or by email at the address below. 

The Town Board continues to work with Lazy River and the Awosting Club to bring things into compliance and protect our resident’s quality of life. We also continue to keep our boards, committees and commissions staffed.  We have 2 vacancies on our Ethics Board at present.  Anyone interested please contact me at supervisor.tog@gmail.com. 

Work continues on the Inflow & Infiltration work in the hamlet’s Sewer District.  We continue to monitor the Plattekill Trucking Terminal. 

Please take time to participate in local government issues, it is important that we hear from our residents so we can address your concerns.  Town Board meetings are the 1st and 2nd Tuesdays of the month at 7 pm.  You can attend in person or via zoom, we would love to see you. 

Regards, 

Marybeth Majestic
