Mae’r Cyngor Tref yn cefnogi’r addasiadau anabledd a hygyrchedd. Fodd bynnag, ni all ystyried y cais oherwydd nad oes datganiad treftadaeth adeilad rhestredig. Gofynnir am gais cyflawn.

106 | Cyngor ar Bopeth Ceredigion
Cais am gyllid i dalu am ofod swyddfa i’w rentu yn wythnosol yng Nghanolfan Fethodistaidd St Paul i ddarparu sesiynau galw heibio. Nodwyd bod cyllid eisoes wedi’i ddarparu yn gynharach yn y flwyddyn. Byddid yn cysylltu â St Paul’s ynghylch costau rhentu.
PENDERFYNWYD rhoi pwerau dirprwyedig i’r Pwyllgor Cyllid wneud penderfyniad.

107 | Ras Dau Gopa
PENDERFYNWYD darparu cefnogaeth o £200 ar yr amod bod unrhyw ddeunyddiau (baneri ayyb) yn ddwyieithog, gyda’r Gymraeg yn cael ei blaenoriaethu, a ‘Noddir gan Gyngor Tref Aberystwyth’ yn cael ei arddangos. Byddai’r trefnwyr yn cael eu hatgoffa bod grantiau’r Cyngor yn cael eu dyfarnu’n flynyddol ym mis Ebrill. Roedd eithriad yn cael ei wneud oherwydd amseriad y ras a’r ffaith nad oedd wedi’i chynnal ers 2019 (Covid).
|
Twin Peaks Race
It was RESOLVED to provide £200 support on the condition that any materials (flags etc.) were bilingual, with Welsh prioritised, and ‘Sponsored by Aberystwyth Town Council’ displayed. The organisers would be reminded that the Council’s grants are awarded annually in April. An exception was being made due to the timing of the race and the fact that it had not been held since 2019 (Covid).
|
|
108 | EGO Aberystwyth
Nid oedd EGO bellach yn cynhyrchu fersiwn argraffedig ac roedd y Cyngor wedi cael cynnig dwy erthygl ddigidol yn lle’r un erthygl brintiedig a oedd yn weddill. Cymeradwywyd hyn.
|
Aberystwyth EGO
EGO was no longer producing a printed version and the Council had been offered two digital articles instead of the one printed article outstanding. This was approved.
|
|
109 | Cynllun Hyfforddiant
I’w drafod yng nghyfarfod nesaf y Pwyllgor Rheoli Cyffredinol. |
