Roedd y Cyng Brenda Haines wedi’u cynnwys o dan ymddiheuriadau ond nid oedd yn aelod o’r Pwyllgor.

 

PENDERFYNWYD dderbyn y cofnodion gydag enw ‘Cyng Haines wedi ei ddiddymu.

Minutes of the Planning Committee – 6 February 2017:

 

Cllr Brenda Haines had been included under apologies but was not a member of the Committee.

 

It was RESOLVED to accept the minutes with Cllr Haines’ name removed.

 

 

 

 

Materion yn codi:

 

Item 7.3: Eglwys Gwenfrewi: Roedd ymateb wedi ei dderbyn oddi wrth adran Rheoli Adeiladu Ceredigion yn dweud nad oeddent yn ystyried yr eglwys yn berygl i’r cyhoedd ac felly nid oedd angen gwneud cais am fynediad. Teimlai’r Cynghorwyr bod yr eglwys yn cynrychioli rhan bwysig o dreftadaeth y dref ac roedd pryderon gwirioneddol ynglŷn â lles y llu o arteffactau gwerthfawr. O gymharu, roedd yr eglwys ym Mhenparcau yn edrych mewn cyflwr gwael iawn.

 

Eitem 7.4: Fframwaith Datblygu Cenedlaethol: Cytunodd y Cynghorwyr gyda’r pwyntiau a nodwyd gan y Cyng Jeff Smith. Roeddent hefyd yn teimlo bod yna adeiladu anaddas ar y gorlifdir yn Aberystwyth ac y byddai datblygu pentrefi yn helpu i warchod yr iaith Gymraeg. Nodwyd bod y rhan fwyaf o Gynghorwyr Sir yn rhwystredig gan y CDLl (roedd pwyllgor gwaith wedi cael ei sefydlu i edrych ar newidiadau posib) a bod newid statws y cefnffordd yn nwylo Llywodraeth Cymru.

Matters arising:

 

Item 7.3: St Winefride’s: A response had been received from Ceredigion’s Building Control section saying that in their view as the church was not deemed a danger to the public there was no need to request entry. Councillors felt the church represented an important part of the town’s heritage and there were real concerns regarding the wellbeing of the many valuable artefacts. In comparison the church in Penparcau looked in a very poor state of repair.

 

Item 7.4: National Development Framework: Councillors agreed with the points noted by Cllr Jeff Smith. It was also felt that there was inappropriate building on the floodplain within Aberystwyth and that developing villages would help preserve the Welsh language. It was noted that most County Councillors were frustrated by the LDP (a working group had been set up to look at possible changes) and that the de-trunking was in the hands of WG.

Ceredig Davies:
sesiynau codi sbwriel: diolchodd i’r gwirfoddolwyr am eu gwaith ond nododd bod y nifer o drolïau wedi cynyddu ers i Morrisons ddiddymu’r mecanwaith bunt. PENDERFYNWYD bod y Cyngor yn ysgrifennu at yr archfarchnadoedd i dynnu sylw at y mater hwn.
Reidiau plant ar y prom: yr oedd eisiau asesu barn y Cyngor Tref. Safiad y Cyngor Sir oedd i’w ganiatáu am gyfnod cyfyngedig. Mynegwyd amryw o safbwyntiau ynghylch sŵn a thagfeydd, ond yn gyffredinol roedd cynghorwyr o blaid darparu reidiau ar raddfa fach am gyfnod cyfyngedig.

Nododd Cynghorwyr fod y feirniadaeth yn y llythyr yn ddi-sail a mynegwyd safbwyntiau cryf ynghylch cylchdro yr Esgob ar yr arolwg annibynnol. Nodwyd hefyd cyflwr gwael eglwys Penparcau, hoff ddewis yr Esgobaeth. Gall y Cyngor ond lobïo.

St Winefride’s: a letter of complaint regarding the Extraordinary meeting. Councillors noted that the criticism in the letter was unfounded and expressed strong views regarding the Bishop’s U turn on the independent survey. The poor condition of the Penparcau church, the Diocese’s preferred option, was also noted. The Council can only lobby.

 

 

164.5

Llywodraethwr Ysgol Plascrug: dylid gohirio enwebu Llywodraethwr Awdurdod Llai tan ar ôl yr etholiad.

Plascrug School Governor: the nomination of a Minor Authority Governor would be delayed until after the election.

Pwyllgor Rheoli Datblygu:

 

A160934 a A161043: arwyddion M&S a Tesco. Roedd yr Adran Gynllunio wedi argymell cymeradwyo’r cais er gwaethaf gwrthwynebiad y Cyngor Tref ar sail diffyg dwyieithrwydd ac arwyddion wedi eu goleuo’n fewnol mewn ardal gadwraeth.

 

ARGYMHELLWYD y dylai’r Cyngor ysgrifennu at Gomisiynydd yr Iaith Gymraeg.

Development Control Committee:

 

A160934 and A161043: M&S and Tesco signage. The Planning Department had recommended approval of the application despite Town Council’s objections on the basis of lack of bilingualism and internally illuminated signage in a conservation area.

Janet Barber, Aberteifi: gwrthwynebu safiad Cyngor y Dref ar ddwyieithrwydd yng nghyd-destun M&S.

Janet Barber, Aberteifi: opposing theTown Council’s stance on bilingualism in the context of M&S.

 

 

7.3

Eglwys Gwenfrewi: Roedd gan y Cyng Lucy Huws bryderon difrifol ynghylch cyflwr yr arteffactau sydd wedi eu gadael yn yr eglwys gan nad oes gan y plwyfolion hawl i gael mynediad i’w cynnal.

 

Gofynnodd i’r Cyngor Tref ysgrifennu at Swyddog Adeiladau y Cyngor Sir i ofyn iddo orfodi mynediad i’r eglwys gan fod yr Ymddiriedolwyr yn cael eu gweld fel landlord anghyfrifol ac heb gymryd camau i gynnal adeilad yn yr ardal gadwraeth.

 

CYTUNWYD y dylai’r Cyngor ysgrifennu at Swyddog yr Adeilad.

St Winefride’s: Cllr Lucy Huws had serious concerns regarding the condition of the artefacts left in the church as parishioners were not allowed entry to maintain them.

 

She requested that the Council write to CCC Building’s Officer to ask for enforced entry as the Trustees are seen as an irresponsible landlord and are not taking steps to maintain a building in the conservation area.

 

It was AGREED that the Council should write to the Building’s Officer.

Rheilffordd i Gaerfyrddin
Ffordd osgoi Llanbadarn er mwyn cymryd y cefnffordd o ganol y dref
Dyrannu gormod o dai i Aberystwyth – dylai’r CDLl gael ei newid i ganiatáu adeiladu yng nghefn gwlad lle mae ei angen.

CYTUNWYD y byddai’r Clerc yn cylchredeg y manylion a’r syniadau uchod trwy e-bost i gasglu ynghyd yr holl sylwadau i’w trafod yn y Cyngor Llawn nesaf

National Development Framework consultation ends 7 March 2017.

 

Cllr Jeff Smith suggested they should look at projects such as:

Railway to Caerfyrddin
Llanbadarn bi-pass in order to de-trunk the town centre
Over allocation of housing for Aberystwyth – the LDP should be changed to allow building in the countryside where it is needed.

It was AGREED that the Clerk would circulate the details and the ideas above by email to gather all comments for discussion at next Full Council
