A170922: Plas Morolwg
Mae’r Cyngor Tref yn croesawu’r gwelliannau i’r to a’r balconïau ond mae’n teimlo bod angen ystyried y datblygiad ymhellach yn ofalus, er mwyn gwneud y defnydd gorau posibl o’r wynebwedd ar gyfer tenantiaid, ac, oherwydd y bydd yr adeilad yn nodwedd mor amlwg a gweladwy o dirlun Aberystwyth, er mwyn bod yn briodol ar gyfer ei leoliad (bryngaer hynafol). Mae trigolion hefyd wedi rhannu eu pryderon gyda’r Cyngor ynghylch y materion hyn.
Mor bwysig yw’r datblygiad hwn i Aberystwyth, ac am ei fod y cam cyntaf mewn datblygiad mwy, hoffai’r Cyngor ofyn am gyfarfod â Chymru a Gorllewin, eu penseiri a swyddogion cynllunio Ceredigion i drafod y cynlluniau arfaethedig. Dylai’r cyfarfod hwn fod yn agored i’r cyhoedd hefyd.
A170922: Plas Morolwg
The Town Council welcomes the improvements to the roof and balconies but feels that the development needs further careful consideration and improvement to make the best possible use of aspect for tenants, but also, as the building will be such a dominant and highly visible feature of the Aberystwyth skyline, to be appropriate for its setting (an ancient hill fort). Concerned residents have also contacted the Council regarding these issues
So important is this development to Aberystwyth, and as it is the first stage of a bigger development, the Council would like to request a meeting with Wales and West, their architects, and Ceredigion planning officers to discuss the proposed plans. This meeting should also be open to the public.
