Byddai’r man parcio yn Nerwen-fawr yn cael ei gwblhau ac roedd ymweliad safle i’w gynnal ynglyn â rheilen law ym Mancydderwen, Derwen-fawr.

Mewn perthynas â’r Tipio Anghyfreithlon a gofnodwyd eisoes, cadarnhaodd fod y tirfeddiannwr wedi clirio’r sbwriel ei hun ac wedi gosod arwyddion, roedd popeth i’w weld yn iawn.  Fodd bynnag, dywedwyd bod tua 30 o deiars wedi’u gadael ger Glandwr, a oedd wedi’u casglu wedyn gan CSC.  

Roedd y casgliadau sbwriel yn dda ar y cyfan heblaw am rai achosion o beidio â’i gasglu.

Roedd y Cyng. Jones wedi ysgrifennu at Lee Waters, y Dirprwy Weinidog, ynghylch yr oedi cyn adeiladu ffordd osgoi yn Llandeilo.  Anogodd y Cynghorwyr i ysgrifennu hefyd a gofynnwyd i’r clerc wneud hynny ar ran y Cyngor Cymuned.

Cllr. Hefin Jones raised the matter regarding road conditions within the county and advised that this was discussed in a full council meeting.

The parking bay at Broad Oak is to be completed and a site inspection is due regarding a handrail at Bancydderwen, Broad Oak.

With regard to previously reported Fly Tipping, he confirmed that the landowner had cleared the rubbish himself and put up signs, all seemed to be well.  However, it had been reported that some 30 tyres had been dumped near Glandwr which had been subsequently collected by CCC.  

Rubbish collections were on the whole good with some occasional non collections.

Cllr. Jones had written to Lee Waters, Deputy Minister, regarding the delay on the construction of a Llandeilo bypass.  He urged Cllrs to write too also and the clerk was asked to do so on behalf of the Community Council.
