Ceisiadau Cynllunio:

Planning Applications:

5.1

A170586: 28 Ffordd y Môr. Gosod arwyddion ffasgia ac arwyddion mynedfa.

DIM GWRTHWYNEBIAD yn gyffredinol, a hoffai’r Cyngor gymeradwyo Byddin yr Iachawdwriaeth ar gael arwyddion dwyieithog. Mae gwall yn y Gymraeg fodd bynnag, a byddai'r Cyngor yn hapus i gynnig help gyda'r cyfieithiad.

A170586: 28 Terrace Road. Installation of fascia signage and recessed entrance

Council generally has NO OBJECTION and would like to commend the Salvation Army on having bilingual signage.  There is an error in the Welsh however and the Council would be happy to offer help with the translation.

Danfon ymateb at y Cyngor Sir a galw gyda Byddin y Iachawdwriaeth i gynnig cymorth.

Send response to CCC and call with the Salvation Army to offer help.

5.2

A170511:  16 Rhodfa’r Gogledd. Arddangos arwyddion

Mae’r Cyngor yn GWRTHWYNEBU y defnydd o Saesneg yn unig ar yr arwyddion. Dylai elusennau sy’n derbyn cyllid gan Lywodraeth Cymru ac Awdurdodau Lleol gadw at yr un polisïau dwyieithog. Mae arwyddion uniaith Saesneg yn diystyru anghenion poblogaeth sy'n siarad Cymraeg. Mae Byddin yr Iachawdwriaeth, yn eu cais hwy, wedi dangos ystyriaeth o anghenion lleol.

A170718: 16 North Parade. Display of signage

The Council OBJECTS to the use of English only on the signage.  Charities in receipt of funding from Welsh Government and Local Authorities should adhere to the same bilingual policies.  It demonstrates a disregard for the needs of the Welsh speaking population.  The Salvation Army, in their application, has demonstrated consideration of local needs.

Gohebiaeth

Correspondence

7.1

Torri  rheolau cynllunio posib yn Ffordd y Gogledd: roedd waliau cerrig a rheiliau wedi'u tynnu.

Cytunodd y Pwyllgor i ysgrifennu at Gyngor Sir Ceredigion:

• i fynegi siom mewn gwaith o'r fath, o fewn ardal gadwraeth, sydd wedi niweidio undod a chymeriad y rhes o dai.
• i fynegi pryder ynglŷn â diogelwch cerddwyr yn dilyn creu mynedfeydd ar ffordd brysur, a thynnu ymaith y bolardiau i atal parcio ar y palmant.

Suspected breach of planning North Road: stone walls, railings and bollards had been removed.

The Committee agreed to write to Ceredigion County Council:

• to express disappointment at such works, within a conservation area, which has damaged the unity and character of the row of houses
• to express concern regarding pedestrian safety as entrances have been created onto a busy road and the bollards to prevent parking on the pavement have been removed.

7.2

Torri coeden Ffordd Caradog:  Torrwyd y goeden yma heb  ganiatad, a hynny yn ystod y tymor y gwaherddir torri coed a llwyni. Nid oedd unrhyw dystiolaeth bod arolwg adar wedi'i wneud.  Hefyd, roedd y ffaith bod hon yn ganolfan addysg yn siom gan nad yw yn ategu nodau cadarnhaol tuag at yr amgylchedd. 

Byddai cynghorwyr y Ward yn taro heibio i gael sgwrs gyda'r rheolwyr i ddeall beth arweinodd at y sefyllfa, ac yn cysylltu â’r Cyngor Sir.

Hefyd:

• roedd coeden wedi'i thorri ar Ffordd Banadl a phenderfynwyd gwneud ymholiadau ynglyn â phwy oedd yn gyfrifol am hyn.
• Dylid cysylltu a Jon Hadlow ynglyn â gor-dorri y goeden yn Stryd y Drindod.

Caradog Road tree felling:   This tree was cut down without permission, during the term that the felling of trees and shrubs is prohibited. There was no evidence that a bird survey had been carried out. Also, the fact that this is an education establishment is disappointing as it does not support positive goals towards the environment.

Ward councilors would call to have a conversation with the managers to understand what led to the situation, and would contact the County Council.

Also:

• a tree had been cut down on Banadl Road and it was decided to make inquiries about who was responsible for this.
• Jon Hadlow should be contacted regarding the over- pruning of the tree in Trinity Street.

Baw cŵn – atebion

Dog fouling – solutions

5.1

Arwyddion a chosb

Roedd arwyddion wedi cael ei rhoi ym Mharc Ffordd y Gogledd ac yn y rhandiroedd. Roedd angen cymryd hen arwydd i ffwrdd yn Ffordd y Gogledd. Roedd baw ci yn broblem mawr yn y parc a roedd angen ail ddylunio er mwyn cau cŵn allan.

O ran dirwyon nid oedd Borth wedi llwyddo gydag erlyniadau.

Signs and fines

Signage had been put in place in North Road Park and at the allotments. An old sign had been left in the North Road Park which needed to be removed. Dog fouling was a big problem in the park and it needed to be redesigned to be able to shut dogs out.

In terms of fines Borth had not succeeded with prosecutions.

5.2

Biniau, glanhau ac ariannu:

Roedd angen gosod biniau mewn mannau allweddol ee ar lwybr Pendinas i Barc Dinas, ar lwybr Glanyrafon i Welafon ac ar Graig Glais ac ati.

Cytunwyd hefyd y dylid cyfeirio contractio rhywun i lanhau baw cŵn a chasglu tystiolaeth i'r Pwyllgor Cyllid.

Gallai hefyd fod yn werth gwneud cais am grant clwstwr Llywodraeth Cymru gyda chynghorau cyfagos.

Bins, cleaning and funding

Strategically place bins were needed eg  on the Pendinas to Parc Dinas path, on the Glanyrafon to Gwelafon path and on Constitutional Hill etc.

It was also agreed that contracting someone to clean up dog mess and gather evidence would be referred to the Finance Committee. 

It might also be worth applying for a WG cluster grant with neighbouring community councils.

Ymchwil:

Roedd gan Prifysgol Aberystwyth ddiddordeb mewn ymchwilio i halogiad parasitig ar dir adloniadol oherwydd baw cŵn. Roedd Cynghorau Tref a Chymuned yr ardal yn cael eu gwahodd i gymryd rhan trwy gyfrannu ychydig o arian a nodi meysydd i'w profi.

Cytunwyd mewn egwyddor a byddai'n cael ei gyfeirio at y Pwyllgor Cyllid.

Research

Aberystwyth University were interested in carrying out research into the parasitic contamination of recreational land due to dog fouling. Town and Community Councils in the area were invited to participate by contributing a small amount of funding and identifying areas to be tested.

It was agreed in principle and would be referred to the Finance Committee.

5.4

Wrth ystyried y tair elfen uchod, ARGYMHELLWYD bod y Cyngor:

1. Yn edrych ar gyfleoedd ariannu gyda chynghorau eraill
2. Yn cynnig gwaith dan gytundeb i Warden Cŵn i glanhau baw ci a chasglu tystiolaeth
3. Trefnu mwy o finiau i'w gosod yn strategol ar deithiau cŵn poblogaidd
4. Cymryd rhan yn yr ymchwil trwy gyfrannu arian a nodi meysydd hamdden i'w profi.

In considering the above three  elements it was RECOMMENDED that Council:

1. Explores funding opportunities with other councils
2. Employs a Dog Warden on a contractual basis to clean up dog mess and gather evidence
3. Organises more bins to be strategically placed on popular dog walks
4. Participates in the research by contributing funding and identifying recreational areas for testing.

Y ddrysfa / Parc Ffordd y Gogledd

Awgrymwyd ymgorffori ardaloedd lle’r oedd problem (fel y trafodwyd uchod) o fewn ardal wedi'i ffensio a gyda ietau. Nodwyd syniadau am newid defnydd y lle hefyd fel maes chwarae, ampitheatre, tir chwaraeon, eco sblashpark ac ati.

ARGYMHELLWYD trafod datblygu Parc Ffordd y Gogledd ymhellach, a dylid ymgynghori â'r cyhoedd, ond byddai  hyn a chwilio cyllid yn cymryd peth amser. Yn y cyfamser cytunwyd prynu'r sleid yr oedd y Cyngor wedi cytuno eisoes ond hefyd gosod giatiau sy’n cau yn awtomatig i leihau mynediad gan gŵn.

Labyrinth / North Road Park

Incorporating problem areas (as discussed above) within a fenced and gated area was suggested. Ideas for a change of use was also noted such as a playground, ampitheatre, sports ground, eco splashpark etc. 

It was RECOMMENDED that developing North Road Park be discussed further, and the public should be consulted, but this, and sourcing funding, would take some time. In the interim it was agreed to buy the slide that Council had previously agreed but also to put in place swing shut gates to minimise entry by dogs.
