5.1

A160952: Goleuadau ym maes parcio Premier Inn, Stryd y Baddon

Er ein bod ni’n cydnabod yr angen am oleuadau yn y maes parcio, rydym yn teimlo bod 9 ohonynt yn ormodol. Rydym ni’n GWRTHWYNEBU’r goleuadau sy’n agos iawn at Fflatiau St John a fyddai’n cael effaith andwyol ar y preswylwyr yn y fflatiau. Dylid cuddio’r goleuadau ar un neu mwy o ochrau er mwyn lleihau llygredd golau.

A160952: Lighting in Premier Inn car park, Bath Street

Although we recognise the need for lighting in the car park, we feel that 9 lights is excessive. We OBJECT to the lights in close proximity to St John’s Flats which would have a detrimental effect on the residents in the flats. Lights should be shielded on one or more sides in order to reduce light pollution

5.2

A160959: Station Chambers, Yr Hen Orsaf

Rydym yn GWRTHWYNEBU arwydd sydd wedi’i oleuo o’r tu fewn, gan fod hyn yn groes i’r Canllawiau Cynllunio Atodol ar Flaenau Siop yn Aberystwyth. Rydym hefyd yn gofyn am arwydd dwyieithog e.e. dylai “wealth management” fod yn Gymraeg hefyd.

A160959: Station Chambers, Yr Hen Orsaf

We OBJECT to an internally illuminated sign, as it contravenes the Supplementary Planning Guidance on Shopfronts in Aberystwyth. We also ask that the sign is bilingual e.g. “wealth management” should also be in Welsh

A160967: 36 Ffordd y Môr

DIM GWRTHWYNEBIAD cyn belled bod yr arwydd bargodol yn ddwyieithog ac felly’n cydymffurfio a Mesur y Gymraeg (Cymru) 2011, gan fod Safonau’r Gymraeg yn berthnasol i ddarparwyr gwasanaethau post yng Nghymru.

Cyfeiriadau personol: Llongyfarchwyd Cyng. Mererid Boswell (Jones gynt) ar ei phriodas.

Banciau Poteli:
Roedd Cyngor Sir Ceredigion wedi hysbysu’r Cyngor Tref am y bwriad i symud y banciau poteli o dir y castell i safle wrth waelod y grisiau rhwng Dan Dre a’r harbwr.

PENDERFYNWYD gwrthwynebu’r cynlluniau, ac i ysgrifennu at y Cyngor Sir gan godi’r pwyntiau canlynol:

Byddai gwyntoedd cryf ger yr harbwr yn debyg o greu problemau o ran sŵn.
Mae llawer o le yn y castell
Mae’r banciau boteli presennol yn werthfawr iawn ac yn gyfleus i drigolion lleol
Mae angen gwneud ailgylchu’n hawdd
Dylid gosod banc arall yn yr un man i ddelio a’r problemau gorlifo
Gellid gwahardd parcio ymyl y banciau boteli ar rai adegau.
Pe symudir y banciau, byddai pobl yn debygol o adael bagiau o boteli gwydr ar dir y Castell ta waeth, a fyddai’n ddatblygiad gwael iawn.

Bottle Banks:

Ceredigion County Council had informed the Town Council of their intention to move the bottle banks from the castle grounds to the bottome of the steps between Mill Street and the harbour.

It was RESOLVED to oppose the plan and to write to the County Council to raise the following points:

The strong winds near the harbour would probably create a noise problem.
There is plenty of space in the the castle
The current bottle banks are valuable and convenient for local residents.
Recycling should be made easy
Another bank should be placed in the same place to deal with the overflow problems
Parking near the bottle banks could be prohibited during some times.
If the banks were moved, people would probably continue to leave bags of glass bottles at the castle, which would be a very bad development.

Nadolig

Adroddodd Cyng. Jeff Smith ar drefniadau.

Roedd goleuadau cloia (icicles) wedi’u harchebu. Roedd cynllun lleoliad wedi mynd at TME Trydanol ar gyfer y goleuadau newydd a hen.
Bydd garlantau’n fwy lliwgar eleni – mae Cambrian Trees yn mynd i greu rhai gydag addurniadau naturiol fydd yn adlewyrchu’r goleuadau stryd.
Bydd goleuadau batri yn cael eu treialu ar y coed ar hyd Rhodfa’r Gogledd ac efallai mewn mannau eraill. Roedd y Cyngor wedi cysylltu â Charlies am nawdd gyda’r prosiect yma ac yn aros am ymateb.
Roedd Cambrian Trees wedi cynnig gostyngiad os gallent osod baneri yn hysbysebu’u busnes ar y ffens o gwmpas y brif goeden. PENDERFYNWYD dderbyn hyn.
Annogwyd cynghorwyr i hysbysebu’r gweithdai lanternau, a chytunwyd edrych ar opsiynau goleuadau batri ar gyfer Sgwâr y Brenin.

Diolchwyd i Cyng. Jeff Smith am ei waith.

Christmas

Cllr Jeff Smith reported on arrangements.

Icicle lights had been ordered. A location plan had gone to TME Electrical for new and old lights.
The garlands will be more colourful this year. Cambrian Trees are going to create ones that will reflect the street lights.
Battery operated lights are going to be trialled on the trees in North Road and possibly other locations. The Council had contacted Charlies regarding sponsorship of this project and was waiting for a response.
Cambrian Trees had offered a reduction in price in return for advertising banners on the fence around the main tree. It was RESOLVED to accept this.
Councillors were encouraged to advertise the lantern workshops and it was agreed to investigate battery operated lights for the Kings Hall area.

Cllr Jeff Smith was thanked for his work.

Argraffu:

Nodwyd fod y Cyngor Tref wedi bod yn argraffu ar gyfer mudiadau yr oedd yn eu cefnogi. Teimlwyd fod angen polisi clir ar hyn.

Teimlwyd mae’r prif gost oedd amser staff ond fod cost papur yn gallu bod yn sylweddol hefyd.

PENDERFYNWYD

Ystyried rhoi terfyn o 500 copi cyn dechrau codi tâl am argraffu.
Er mwyn arbed amser staff, dylid ofyn i Swyddog o’r grŵp dan sylw ddod mewn i wneud y gwaith argraffu ei hun, o dan arolygaeth y Clerc.

Hefyd, dylid edrych ar ddefnyddio byrddau o gwmpas y dref i hyrwyddo digwyddiadau gan y fath grŵpiau. PENDERFYNWYD ymchwilio i berchnogaeth y byrddau, ac i ofyn am un wrth y castell a’r orsaf.

Printing:

It was noted that the Town Council had been printing for organisations that it supports. A clear policy was needed for this.

It was felt that the main cost was staff time but that paper costs could also be substantial.

It was RESOLVED to:

Consider a limit of 500 copies before charging a fee for printing.
To save on staff time, a representative of the group would come in to do the printing themselves under the supervision of the Clerk.

Also, use of the noticeboards around the town to publicise activities of the groups should be looked at.

It was RESOLVED to investigate ownership of the boards and to ask for one by the castle and the station.

Blodau:

Nodwyd na fydd y Cyngor Sir yn cyfrannu at ddarparu blodau eto. Cost y darpariaeth blodau llynedd oedd £40,000.

PENDERFYNWYD:

Sefydlu grŵp o unigolion a busnesau gyda diddordeb mewn helpu
Ystyried y posibiliad o fwy o flodau tryflwyddol
Gofyn i Jon Hadlow am gost opsiynau eraill (ee. blodau tryflwyddol, llai o leoliadau ayyb.)
Gofyn am adborth gan GAG
Cysylltu â grwpiau a busnesau lleol
Derbyn y syniad o hysbysebu ar y potiau os fyddai hynny’n helpu cynnal y blodau

Flowers:

It was noted that the County Council would no longer be providing flowers. The cost last year was £40,000.

It was RESOLVED to:

Establish a group of individuals and businesses with interest in helping
Consider more perennials as an option
Ask Jon Hadlow for costings for other options (eg. perennials, fewer locations etc)
Ask for feedback from GAG
Contact groups and local businesses
Accept the idea of advertising on pots if it helps maintain flowers.

Cynllun Gwaith:

Gohiriwyd

Schedule of Works:

Postponed

Rhandiroedd:

PENDERFYNWYD awdurdodi’r Clerc i haneri 2 plot fydd yn dod yn wag yn fuan, ac i osod clo cyfunrhif ar y giât.

Cafwyd hefyd diweddariad ar y meysydd tyfu ym Mhlascrug.

Allotments:

It was RESOLVED to authorise the Clerk to halve the plots that would soon become vacant and to place a combination lock on the gate.

An update on Plascrug was provided.

Eglwys Santes Gwenfrewi:

Cafwyd llythyr yn cwyno am drefn y cyfarfod arbennig ar 27 Hydref.

PENDERFYNWYD ymateb i’r llythyr gan ddweud bod y beirniadaeth yn annheg ar y tirion canlynol:

Doedd gan y cynghorwyr ddim buddiannau sy’n rhagfarnu. Roedd 2 cynghorydd wedi datgan buddiant personol ond nid yw hyn yn atal nhw rhag siarad.
Roedd Frank Hogg yn sâl ac newydd ddod allan o’r ysbyty
Roedd y cyfarfod wedi cael ei chaderio’n iawn
Gwaethpwyd y penderfyniadau o safbwynt seciwlar
Roedd gan bawb o Aberystwyth yr hawl i gofrestru i siarad.
Nad oedd yn bosib i bawb siarad ar sail cyfyngiadau amser.
Roedd cyfyngiadau gofodol oherwydd y nifer o bobl a ddaeth i’r cyfarfod.
Mae’r Cyngor tref yn parti niwtral yn negydu rhwng y 2 ochr ac mae’r 2 ochr wedi cytuno i arolwg.

St Winefride’s:

A letter of complaint was received regarding the running of the extraordinary meeting on 27 October.

It was RESOLVED to reply by saying the criticism was unfair based on the following:

The councillors had no prejudicial interest. Two councillors had declared an interest but this did not stop them from speaking.
Frank Hogg was unwell and had just come out of hospital.
The meeting had been correctly chaired
Decisions were made based on secular views
Everyone in Aberystwyth had a right to register to speak.
Due to time constraints it was not possible to allow everyone to speak
There was restricted space due to the large attendance
The Council is a neutral party mediating between the two sides and both sides have agreed to a survey
