Cyflwyniad gan Penri James, Is-Gadeirydd Asiantaeth Tai Cantref

Roedd yr Ymchwiliad Statudol annisgwyl yn golygu bod angen uno â chymdeithas dai arall. Allan o bum ymgeisydd a gyflwynwyd yn ystod proses gadarn, Wales & West oedd y partner mwyaf ffafriol ar sail y meini prawf graddio. Mae Cyfarfod Cyffredinol Arbennig yn cael ei gynnal ar 9 Awst i gymeradwyo’r uno.

Cwestiynau / atebion / sylwadau:

Byddai yna nifer gyfartal o gyfranddalwyr a byddai’r ganolfan yng Nghastell Newydd Emlyn yn cael ei gadw.
Mae Bwrdd Cantref wedi gofyn am sicrwydd ynghylch CN Emlyn a’r iaith Gymraeg
Os na allai Wales & West reoli Bryn Ystwyth sut y byddent yn rheoli’r ardaloedd eraill?
Plas Morolwg: allan o 62 o fflatiau roedd y rhan fwyaf o’r lesddeiliaid wedi derbyn y cynnig i werthu, heblaw am 7. Roedd Wales & West mewn gwell sefyllfa i wneud cynigion pellach.
A fyddai’r polisi dyrannu tai yn blaenoriaethu pobl leol?
Dewiswyd Wales & West oherwydd y cronfeydd ariannol sylweddol oedd ganddynt wrth gefn.

PENDERFYNWYD cefnogi’r uno a byddai’r Cyng Brendan Somers yn mynychu y Cyfarfod Cyffredinol Arbennig.

Presentation by Penri James, Vice Chair of Cantref Housing Association

The unexpected Statutory Inquiry had necessitated a merger with another housing association. Out of five candidates put forward during a robust process, Wales & West were the favoured partner based on the grading criteria. A Special General Meeting is being held on 9 August to approve the merger.

Questions/responses/comments:

There would be an equal number of shareholders and the base in Castell Newydd Emlyn would be retained.
The Cantref Board has sought reassurances regarding CN Emlyn and the Welsh language
If Wales & West couldn’t manage Bryn Ystwyth how would they manage the other areas?
Plas Morolwg: out of 62 flats most leaseholders had taken up the offer to sell but 7 had not. Wales & West were in a better position to make further offers.
Would the housing allocation policy prioritise local people?
Wales & West was chosen because of having substantial financial reserves.

It was RESOLVED to support the merger and Cllr Brendan Somers would attend the Special General Meeting.

Hiliaeth ac ofn yn dilyn Brexit

Meic Birtwistle, Cymru i Bawb. Roedd y grŵp wedi ei ffurfio i fynd i’r afael â’r ofn o ganlyniad i Brexit. Roedd rali wedi cael ei gynnal a datganiad wedi cael ei ysgrifennu gyda’r bwriad o roi cyhoeddusrwydd iddo yn eang drwy wefannau, posteri a chardiau ac ati

Cytgord nid Casineb

Dylid parchu pob bod dynol yn ddiwahân, beth bynnag fo’i hil, iaith, diwylliant, crefydd, rhyw, rhywioldeb neu abledd.

Rydyn ni’n ymhyfrydu yn amrywiaeth gyfoethog pobl Cymru ac yn mynnu bod gwahaniaethu yn erbyn unrhyw rai oherwydd cefndir neu briodoledd yn gwbl annerbyniol.

Post Brexit fear and racism

Meic Birtwistle, Cymru i Bawb The group had been formed to address the fear resulting from Brexit. A rally had been held and a declaration had been written with the aim of publicising it widely via websites, posters and cards etc.

Harmony not Hate

All human beings should be respected without distinction, whatever their race, language, culture, religion, gender, sexuality or ability. We celebrate the rich diversity of the people of Wales and stress that discrimination against individuals on the basis of their background or attributes is utterly unacceptable.

Datganiad yn erbyn hiliaeth gan Mari Turner ei gyflwyno gan y Cyngh Alun Williams

Rydym yn falch o fyw mewn cymdeithas amrywiol a goddefgar. Nid yw hiliaeth, senoffobia a throseddau casineb yn cael unrhyw le yn ein gwlad. Mae ein Cyngor yn condemnio hiliaeth, senoffobia a throseddau casineb ddiamwys. Ni fyddwn yn caniatáu casineb i fod yn dderbyniol. Byddwn yn gweithio i sicrhau bod cyrff a rhaglenni lleol yn cael y cymorth a’r adnoddau sydd eu hangen arnynt i ymladd ac atal hiliaeth a senoffobia. Rydym yn rhoi sicrwydd i bawb sy’n byw yn yr ardal hon eu bod yn aelodau gwerthfawr o’n cymuned.

A declaration against racism from Mari Turner was presented by Cllr Alun Williams

We are proud to live in a diverse and tolerant society. Racism, xenophobia and hate crimes have no place in our country. Our Council condemns racism, xenophobia and hate crimes unequivocally. We will not allow hate to become acceptable. We will work to ensure that local bodies and programmes have the support and resources they need to fight and prevent racism and xenophobia. We reassure all people living in this area that they are valued members of our community.

Cyflwynodd y Cynghorydd Sue Jones-Davies ddatganiad ar gyfer gwefan y Cyngor Tref.

Mae Cyngor Tref Aberystwyth wedi ymrwymo i weithio gyda phartneriaid i sicrhau bod trigolion y dref, a’r rhai sy’n ymweld â hi, yn profi cymuned sy’n ddiogel a chroesawgar. Mae Aberystwyth yn dathlu amrywiaeth ac nid oes lle yma i hiliaeth, senoffobia, troseddau casineb neu anoddefiad. Mae Cyngor y Dref yn ymrwymo i wneud i bawb deimlo’n aelod gwerthfawr o’n cymuned gosmopolitaidd a bywiog.

PENDERFYNWYD:

mabwysiadu y datganiad gan y Cyng Sue Jones-Davies ar gyfer y wefan

Symud y Swyddfa Bost: Stuart Taylor, Pennaeth Perthnasau Allanol.

Mae’r ymgynghoriad yn cau ar 21 Medi.

Cyflwynwyd cynllun llawr cyfrinachol i’r Cyngor. Eglurodd y Cadeirydd fod y cyfarfod yn un cyhoeddus.

Roedd cynghorwyr yn poeni am:

Darpariaeth yn yr Iaith Gymraeg
Beth yn gywir fyddai effaith barn cyhoeddus ac mai nid ymgynghoriad ydoedd ond y cam cyntaf i symud y Swyddfa Bost
Diogelwch gwasanaethau dan reolaeth partner masnachol
Colli statws y Goron
Dim ymgynghori ar y cynllun llawr a materion megis mynediad, gofod aros ac eistedd o fewn siop gyfyng.

Er iddo gynnig sicrwydd ynglyn â mynediad a darpariaeth gwasanaeth, PENDERFYNODD y Cyngor i wrthwynebu’r cynllun ac i gadw’r Swyddfa Bost yn y lleoliad presennol

Post Office relocation:(Stuart Taylor, Head of External Relations.

Consultation closes on 21 September.

A confidential floor-plan was presented to Council. The Chair pointed out that it was a public meeting.

Councillors were concerned about:

Welsh Language provision.
The exact impact of public opinion and that it wasn’t really a consultation but the first phase of moving the post office.
The security of services within the control of a commercial partner
Loss of Crown status
No public consultation on the floor-plan and issues such as accessibility, queuing and seating space within a cramped shop

Although reassurances were offered regarding access and provision of services the Council RESOLVED to oppose the plan and to keep the Post Office in its present location.
