Cyflwyniad: Gefeillio Kronberg

 

Cyflwynodd Chris Simpson wybodaeth am y bedair partneriaeth gefeillio ac amlinellodd rai pryderon am ddyfodol gefeillio. Croesawodd gyllid blynyddol y Cyngor Tref a’r cam i gyflogi swyddog gyda’r cylch gorchwyl yn cynnwys cefnogi’r partneriaethau.

 

Teimlwyd y byddai'r rôl hon yn ddefnyddiol o ran cydlynu'r pedwar grŵp gefeillio ac er mwyn archwilio ffyrdd o recriwtio aelodau newydd. Byddai canllaw a gynhyrchwyd gan Gymdeithas Prydain a’r Almaen yn cael ei ddosbarthu i gynghorwyr.

Presentation: Kronberg Twinning

 

Chris Simpson presented information on the four twinning partnerships and outlined some concerns about the future of twinning. He welcomed the Town Council’s annual funding and the move to employ an officer whose remit would include supporting the partnerships.

 

It was felt that this role would be useful in co-ordinating the four twinning groups in order to explore ways of recruiting new members.  A guide produced by the British German Association would be circulated to councillors.

Cydnabod gwasanaeth

 

Yn dilyn trafodaeth ar feini prawf ar gyfer cyflwyno medal Cyfraniad Arbennig yn hytrach na dyfarnu Rhyddid y Dref, PENDERFYNWYD rhoi'r fedal cyfraniad arbennig i gydnabod gwasanaeth gwirfoddol hir Dai Jenkins MBE a Richie Griffiths BEM. Byddai tystysgrif yn cael ei chynnig hyd nes y byddai'r medalau newydd wedi'u cynhyrchu.

 

Byddai meini prawf y fedal a Rhyddid y Dref yn cael eu trafod ymhellach fel eitem agenda Rheolaeth Cyffredinol ond yn gryno dylid dyfarnu Rhyddid y Dref am etifeddiaeth gyhoeddus barhaol a medal Cyfraniad Arbennig am wasanaeth rhagorol.

Recognition of service

 

Following a discussion on the criteria for a Special Contribution medal as opposed to awarding Freedom of the Town, it was RESOLVED to provide the special contribution medal to recognise the long voluntary service of both Dai Jenkins MBE and Richie Griffiths BEM.  A certificate would be offered until the new medals had been produced.

 

Criteria for the medal and for the Freedom of the Town would be discussed further as a General Management agenda item but in brief the Freedom of the Town should be awarded for a lasting public legacy and the Special Contribution medal for outstanding service.
