| 19.3 | Grant pêl-fasged MUGA: dywedodd swyddogion y byddai defnyddio’r grant ar gyfer peintio bloc ar gyfer cwrt pêl-fasged y MUGA yn golygu cost cynnal a chadw sylweddol yn y dyfodol ac y byddai’n cael ei weld yn ffafrio pêl-fasged yn hytrach na chwaraeon eraill.
Cytunodd y cynghorwyr â’r cyngor hwn. |
MUGA basketball grant: officers advised that using the grant for block painting the basketball court of the MUGA would present a substantial future maintenance cost and would be seen to be favouring basketball over other sports.
Councillors agreed with this advice.
