Cof/Min 24/62 (1) A40 SGWAR DRYSLWYN SQUARE, DRYSLWYN / BROAD OAK / DIOGELWCH Y FFYRDD / ROAD SAFETY – A40

Nid oedd unrhyw wybodaeth wedi dod gan Heddlu Dyfed-Powys ynghylch data cyflymder ac 

nid oedd yr asesiad o’r A40 wedi’i gwblhau.  Byddai’r clerc yn cysylltu â’r Cyng. H Jones 

ynglŷn ag unrhyw wybodaeth am y data cyflymder gan Mike Jacob CSC. 

Ers y cyfarfod diwethaf, roedd mater difrifol wedi digwydd ar yr A40, ger Sgwâr Dryslwyn. 

Yn dilyn glaw trwm, roedd dŵr wyneb dwfn wedi achosi amodau gyrru peryglus iawn. 

Roedd canghennau a malurion wedi atal y dŵr rhag llifo i ffwrdd a daeth rhai tai’n agos iawn 

i ddioddef llifogydd hefyd.  Roedd y Cyng. A Davies wedi rhoi gwybod i CSC, Heddlu 

Dyfed Powys a SWTRA am y mater.  Yn ffodus, llwyddodd dau o drigolion lleol i glirio’r 

dŵr trwy ddefnyddio pwmp addas.   Roedd agwedd ac ymateb SWTRA yn siomedig iawn.  

Bydd y Cyng. H Jones a Cefin Campbell AS yn cysylltu â SWTRA ynghylch y mater hwn.

No information had been forthcoming from Dyfed-Powys Police regarding speed data and the assessment on the A40 has not been completed.  The clerk to contact Cllr H Jones regarding any information on the speed data from Mike Jacob of CCC.

Since the last meeting, a serious matter had occurred on the A40, near Dryslwyn Square,

Following heavy rain, deep surface water had caused driving conditions to be very dangerous. Branches and debris prevented the water from flowing away and houses came very close to being flooded also.  Cllr. A Davies reported the issue to CCC, Dyfed Powys Police and SWTRA.  Fortunately, two local residents were able to clear the water by using a suitable pump.   The attitude and response from SWTRA proved to be very disappointing.  Cllr H Jones and Cefin Campbell MS will be contacting SWTRA regarding this matter.

Cof/Min 24/62 (2) 1 BANCYDDERWEN, BROAD OAK

Roedd y mater yn parhau i fod heb ei ddatrys oherwydd blaenoriaethau ariannu.

Roedd CSC wedi trefnu sesiwn ar-lein ar wybodaeth ynghylch Datblygiadau Un Blaned.  Yn 

anffodus, dim ond dau ddiwrnod o rybudd a roddwyd ac oherwydd ymrwymiadau gwaith y 

Cynghorwyr nid oedd yn bosibl i unrhyw un fod yn bresennol.  Byddai’r clerc yn holi a 

gafodd y sesiwn ei recordio. 

CCC had arranged an online session on information regarding One Planet Developments.  Unfortunately, just two days notice had been given and with Cllrs work commitments it was not possible for anyone to attend.  The clerk to enquire if a recording of the session had been made.

 Cof/Min 24/62 (4) EXCESSIVE WATER ACCUMULATING CWMHARAD TO CWMAGOL

24/74 GOFYNIAD PRAESEPT /  PRECEPT REQUIREMENT 2025 / 2026

Roedd Cyngor Sir Gâr wedi gwneud cais am ofyniad praesept 2025-2026.

Nid oedd manylion costau “Goleuadau Troedffordd” ar gyfer y flwyddyn ariannol uchod ar gael gan CSC. Roedd yr ad-daliad benthyciad blynyddol (prosiect goleuadau LED cymunedol) yn cyfateb i £538.63 (net) dros gyfnod o wyth mlynedd. Roedd yr anfoneb wedi dod i law.

Manylion am Derfyn Gwariant Adran 137 ar gyfer 2025-2026 – sef £11.10 yr etholwr. Roedd oddeutu 437 o etholwyr yn y plwyf.

Rheoliadau Awdurdodau Lleol (Cyfrifo Sylfaen y Dreth Gyngor) (Cymru) 1995: y ffigur ar gyfer cymuned Llangathen 2025-2026 oedd £280.53 – y dreth ar gyfer eiddo Band D

Ymchwiliwyd i Incwm a Gwariant Gwirioneddol y flwyddyn flaenorol, ynghyd â’r gwariant a’r gwariant amcangyfrifedig hyd at 31/3/25.

Ymchwiliwyd i’r holl feysydd gwariant ac ystyriwyd y costau. Roedd yr aelodau wedi gweithio ar leihau swm y cronfeydd.

Penderfynwyd y byddai’r praesept gofynnol ar gyfer 2025-2026 yn £9,500.

Trefnwyd i’r ffurflen gael ei harwyddo gan y clerc, fel y Swyddog Ariannol Cyfrifol, a’r Cadeirydd, a’i bod yn cael ei hanfon ymlaen i’r Adran Adnoddau, CSC.

The precept requirement for 2025 / 2026 was requested by Carmarthenshire County Council. 

Details of “Footway Lighting” charges for the above financial year unavailable from CCC The annual loan repayment (community LED lighting project) equates to £538.63 (net) over a eight year period, the invoice had been received.

Details of Section 137 Expenditure Limit for 2025/2026 – this being £11.10 per elector. There being approximately 437 electors within the parish.  

The Local Authorities (Calculation of Council Tax Base )(Wales) Regulations 1995, the figure for the Llangathen community 2025/2026 being 280.53 – levied for a Band D property.

Actual Income and Expenditure for the previous year was examined as was expenditure and estimated expenditure to 31/3/25.

All areas of expenditure were explored and costs considered. Members, as in the previous year had worked on reducing the amount of reserves. 

It was resolved that the precept requirement for 2025/2026 be £9,500.  

Arrangements were made for the form to be signed by the clerk, as the Responsible Financial Officer and  Chair and to be forwarded to Resources Department, CCC       

24/75 MODEL FINANCIAL REGULATIONS FOR COMMUNITY & TOWN COUNCILS (2024)

Cyflwynwyd y ddogfen i’r Cynghorwyr a gwnaed addasiadau fel y bo’n briodol.

Gan fod y ddogfen yn hirfaith, penderfynwyd ei chwblhau yn y cyfarfod nesaf.

The document was presented to Councillors and adjustments were made as appropriate.

As the document was lengthy, it was resolved to complete in the next meeting.

24/76 DIFFIBRILIWR / DEFIBRILLATOR  

Roedd y Diffibrilwyr wedi cael eu harchwilio.  The Defibrillators had been checked.  

Gofynnwyd i’r clerc archebu padiau pediatrig ar gyfer y Diffibriliwr yn Siop Dryslwyn.

The clerk was asked to order paediatric pads for the Defibrillator sited at Dryslwyn Shop.

Roedd y wefan wedi’i diweddaru er mwyn nodi lleoliad yr holl Ddiffibrilwyr yn y plwyf.

The website has been updated indicating the siting of all Defibrillators within the parish.

24/78 ADRODDIAD Y CYNGHORYDD SIR / COUNTY COUNCILLORS REPORT

Dywedodd y Cyng. Hefin Jones wrth yr aelodau y byddai treth y cyngor yn cynyddu pan fyddai’n cael ei gosod, ond nad oedd penderfyniad wedi’i wneud o ran y swm hyd yma; rhagwelwyd y gallai godi 9.75%.

Roedd y stormydd diweddar wedi achosi difrod ar lawer o ffyrdd, a’r ffyrdd B a oedd wedi dioddef fwyaf efallai.  Ei gyngor oedd y dylid rhoi gwybod am unrhyw faterion cyn gynted â phosibl.

Nid oedd y biniau ar ochr y ffyrdd wedi cael eu casglu gan CSC am wythnos neu fwy mewn llawer o ardaloedd.  Roedd hyn oherwydd problemau yn ymwneud â chontractau.

Cllr Hefin Jones advised members that the setting of the council tax would see an increase but as yet the amount had not been decided on, an anticipated figure would be 9.75%

The recent storms had left damage issues on many roads, with B roads perhaps suffering the most.  His advice was to report any issues as soon as possible.

The CCC bin collection service had seen many areas left with bins being left on road side for a week or more.  This was due to problems associated with contracts.

24/79 UNRHYW FATER ARALL / ANY OTHER BUSINESS

1.  Roedd y cysgodfan fysiau yn Sgwâr Dryslwyn wedi ei ddifrodi’n ddifrifol yn y storm.       Rodd tîm CCC wedi cael gwybod am hyn. 

The bus shelter at Dryslwyn Square had been severely damaged following the storm.  This had been reported to CCC.

• Nid yw’r golau stryd yng Nghapel Isaac yn gweithio.  Byddai’r clerc yn rhoi gwybod am hyn.

The street light in Capel Isaac is not in working order.  The clerk to report.

24/80 DYDDIAD CYFARFOD NESAF / DATE OF NEXT MEETING

Er bod y canllaw y gofynnwyd amdano yn y lleoliad hwn yn parhau ar restr CSC, mater o gyllid a blaenoriaeth a oedd yn achosi’r oedi.

Whilst the requested handrail at this location remained on the CCC list it was a matter of funding and priority that is causing the delay.

24/57 ADRODDIAD Y CYNGHORYDD SÎR / COUNTY COUNCILLORS REPORT

Dywedodd y Cyng. Hefin Jones fod proses gosod cyllideb CSC wedi dechrau. Roedd yna ddiffyg o £20 miliwn. Byddai angen i Lywodraeth Cymru godi’r gyllideb 3-4%, a byddai angen cyllideb ddrafft gan y llywodraeth cyn gosod y gyllideb sirol.

Yn anffodus, roedd yna ddiffyg yn yr ysgol.

Roedd Cefin Campbell AoS yn ymchwilio i dlodi gwledig.

Roedd trafodaeth wedi dechrau ynglŷn â datganoli Ystadau’r Goron.

Roedd ffyrdd gwledig yn parhau i fod yn broblem.

Hwb Bach y Wlad, gwasanaeth i gynnig cymorth mewn sawl maes, e.e. materion gwresogi, credyd pensiwn, cymorth i wneud cais am fudd-daliadau/cymorthdaliadau

Awgrymwyd darparu dolen i’r gwasanaeth hwn ar wefan y gymuned ac arddangos taflenni yn lleol.

Cllr Hefin Jones advised that the CCC budget setting process had begun.  There is a £20 million deficit.  A budget uplift of 3 – 4% is needed from Welsh Government and the draft budget from government would be required before county budget is set.
