Yn dilyn trafodaeth, PENDERFYNODD y Cyngor ddanfon llythyr o werthfawrogiad at y Cynghorwyr Kevin Price a Talat Chaudhri yn diolch iddynt am eu gwaith gwerthfawr, ac hefyd yn gofyn iddynt roi unrhyw wybodaeth angenrheidiol i Gwe Cambrian erbyn y Cyngor Llawn ar 24 Hydref.

Ymgynghoriad: Arolwg Etholaethau Seneddol Cymru.

 

Yn dilyn trafodaeth PENDERFYNWYD ymateb i'r ymgynghoriad fel a nodir isod, ac y dylai ymateb y Cyngor gael ei rannu ar y wefan ac yn y wasg leol i annog ymateb gan y cyhoedd erbyn y Cyngor Llawn ar 28 Tachwedd.

Penderfynodd y Cyngor hefyd i ofyn am gyfarfod cyhoeddus yn Aberystwyth.

 

Mae'r Cyngor yn gwrthwynebu'r gostyngiad o Aelodau Seneddol Cymreig yn Nhŷ'r Cyffredin ac yn teimlo'n gryf y bydd hynny'n arwain at ddiffyg mewn democratiaeth a chynrychiolaeth yng Nghymru. Fodd bynnag, os ydyw newid yn angenrheidiol, mae Cyngor Tref Aberystwyth o'r farn y byddai'n briodol i Fachynlleth, er enghraifft, ffurfio cyfran o Geredigion ar sail diwylliant, daearyddiaeth, cludiant ac ati ond na fyddai’n addas cynnwys Llanidloes oherwydd gwahaniaethau o ran diwylliant, rhwystrau daearyddol a chysylltiadau cludiant cyfyngedig.

 

Consultation: Review of Parliamentary Constituencies in Wales.

 

Following discussion it was RESOLVED to respond to the consultation as noted below, and that the Council’s response should be shared on the website and in the local press to encourage a response from the public by the Full Council on 28 November. 

The Council also resolved to ask for a public meeting in Aberystwyth.

 

The Council objects to the reduction of Welsh MPs in the House of Commons and strongly feels that it will result in a deficit in democracy and Welsh representation.  However, should change be necessary, Aberystwyth Town Council is of the opinion that it would be appropriate for Machynlleth, for example, to form part of Ceredigion on the basis of culture, geography, transport etc but that including Llanidloes would not be appropriate because of differences in culture, geographical barriers and limited transport links.

Cynllun Gwaith

 

PENDERFYNWYD gwneud hwn yn eitem parhaol ar yr agenda. Roedd y cynllun wedi cael ei ddiweddaru i gynnwys sylwadau a wnaethpwyd yng Nghyfarfod y Pwyllgor Cyllid diwethaf.

 

  • Coed: Roedd Ystadau Bronglais wedi cysylltu gyda’r Cyngor ynglyn â’r coed ger Clinig Ffordd y Gogledd.

 

PENDERFYNWYD nodi’r coed y mae’r Cyngor yn gyfrifol amdanynt trwy ddefnyddio map Gwyrddach Aberystwyth. Byddai rhaglen cynnal a chadw coed yn ffurfio rhan o’r Cynllun Gwaith.

 

 

Hefyd byddai’r Cyngor yn ymchwilio i sut y gallai ddal eraill yn gyfrifol am unrhyw niwed i goed ee safle Tesco.

 

PENDERFYNWYD fwrw ymlaen gyda’r archwiliad radar cyn gynted a phosib am gost o £2724. Gwnaeth y Cyng M Strong atal ei bleidlais oherwydd gofid am effeithiolrwydd yr arolwg yn yr hydref.

 

  • Arosfannau bws: roedd y wybodaeth bron yn gyflawn.

 

Schedule of Works

 

It was RESOLVED to make this a permanent agenda item.  The schedule had been updated to incorporate comments made at the last Finance Committee meeting.

 

  • Trees: Bronglais estates had contacted the Council regarding the trees near the North Road Clinic.

 

It was RESOLVED to identify all trees that the Council is responsible for by using the Greener Aberystwyth map.  A tree maintenance programme would form part of the Schedule of Works. 

 

Also the Council would investigate how it could hold others to account for any tree damage eg Tesco site.

 

It was RESOLVED to continue with the radar survey as soon as possible at a cost of £2724.

Cllr M Strong abstained due to concerns regarding the effectiveness of an autumn survey.

 

 

  • Bus stops: the information was nearly complete

Gofyn am fap coed oddiwrth Gwyrddach Aberystwyth a mapio’r coed

 

Request tree map from Greener Aberystwyth and map trees

Rhandiroedd:

 

Bydd angen penderfynu ar sut i weithredu os nad yw Plot 20 yn clirio’r rhandir.

 

PENDERFYNWYD y dylai’r deiliad gael ei anfonebu am unrhyw gostau clirio.

 

Allotments:

 

A decision would need to be made as to action to be taken if Plot 20 did not comply with the plot clearance.

 

It was RESOLVED that the tenant should be billed for any clearance costs.

PENDERFYNWYD edrych ar y brydles ac os yn briodol gwahodd y cwmni i gyflwyno ei syniadau i’r Cyngor.

During discussion concerns were noted regarding private use of public land, public access and the value of the labyrinth. However, members wanted to meet the company and hear its ideas.

Fforwm Penparcau: Bryn Jones, Cydlynydd, a Dylan Jones, Ymddiriedolwr, yn bresennol ac yn gofyn am £50,000 ar gyfer costau adeiladu y ganolfan newydd. Sicrhawyd y Cyngor, os fyddai’r Cyngor yn cefnogi’r swm a ofynnwyd amdano, mai dyma’r cais olaf am arian oddi wrth Fforwm Penparcau.

 

 

Yn dilyn trafodaeth ynglyn â’r galwadau ariannol cynyddol ar y Cyngor PENDERFYNWYD edrych, gyda gofal priodol, ar gyllideb y Cyngor i asesu gallu’r Cyngor i gefnogi’r cais ariannol.

Penparcau Forum: Bryn Jones, Co-ordinator, and Dylan Jones, Trustee attended to request funding of £50,000 for build costs of the new facility. The Council was assured that, if the Council provided the requested amount, this would be the last request for funding support from Penparcau Forum.

 

Following discussion regarding increasing financial demands on the Council, it was RESOLVED to exercise due diligence in looking at the budget to assess the Council’s capacity to support the funding request.

Goleuadau, addurniadau a Choed Nadolig:

 

Darparwyd bapur gan y Cyng Jeff Smith yn amlinellu y costau.

 

PENDERFYNWYD:

  • Cefnogi’r gwariant ond bod rhaid cynnwys costau cywir ar gyfer rhoi y coed Nadolig i fyny a’u tynnu i lawr
  • Peidio cael coeden yn Sgwâr y Brenin oherwydd bod y safle yn agored i’r tywydd.
  • Cyflogi TME unwaith eto i wneud y gwaith trydanol gan mai nhw oedd y gorau yn dilyn asesiad o’r farchnad

Christmas Trees, lights and decorations:

A paper was presented by Cllr Jeff Smith outlining the costs.

 

It was RESOLVED to:

  • Accept the spend as long as it included accurate setting up and dismantling costs of Christmas trees
  • have no tree on the King’s Hall site due to exposure to weather
  • Employ TME electricals once more as they were deemed best value following a market review
