Planning Agenda

I’w drafod yn y cyfarfod nesaf.

To be discussed at the next meeting.

Finance Agenda

Darparwyd cost cynllun plannu blwyddolion. Ffafriwyd cynllun hybrid gyda phlanhigion lluosflwydd a allai leihau costau a chyd-fynd â pholisi bioamrywiaeth y Cyngor.

PENDERFYNWYD cymeradwyo’r gwariant i fyny at £5126

The cost of a planting scheme of annuals was provided. A hybrid scheme with perennials was prefered which could reduce costs and be in keeping with the Council’s biodiversity policy.

It was RESOLVED to approve the expenditure of up to £5126.

PENDERFYNWYD cymeradwyo’r gwariant o tua £295 i brynu plac newydd. Gan y byddai’r plac yn ailadrodd y geiriad gwreiddiol ac yn coffáu ailgadarnhau’r cyfeillgarwch yn y Gymraeg a’r Saesneg, gydag ymadrodd byr yn Japaneg, byddai’r gost yn uwch.

It was RESOLVED to approve the approximate expenditure of £295 to purchase a new plaque. As the plaque would re-iterate the original wording and commemorate the re-affirmation of the friendship in Welsh and English, with a short phrase in Japanese, the cost would be higher.

Byddai’r Maer a’r ddirprwyaeth yn cael cinio gyda Maer Aberystwyth, ac yna taith o amgylch prosiectau canol y dref. Byddai llofnodi swyddogol y tystysgrifau a derbyniad bychan yn cael eu cynnal yn swyddfeydd y Cyngor Tref ac yna derbyniad gyda’r hwyr a thwmpath yn yr Amgueddfa. Cytunwyd y byddai ‘canllaw moesau’ o fudd i Gynghorwyr cyn y digwyddiad.

The Mayor and delegation would be having lunch with the Aberystwyth Mayor, followed by a tour of town centre projects.  The official signing of the certificates and a small reception would take place in the Town Council offices followed by an evening reception and twmpath at the Museum. It was agreed that an ‘etiquette guide’ would be beneficial for Councillors ahead of the event.

PENDERFYNWYD anfon y Clerc dan Hyfforddiant a’r Swyddog Digwyddiadau a Phartneriaethau ar y daith i Kronberg ym mis Rhagfyr, ar gost amcangyfrifedig o tua £1,200 ar gyfer teithio a llety. Byddai’r gost yn cael ei thalu o’r gyllideb wrth gefn.

It was RESOLVED to send both the Trainee Clerk and the Events and Partnerships Officer on the trip to Kronberg in December, at an estimated cost of around £1,200 for travel and accommodation. The cost would be covered from the contingency budget.
