LCC February Minutes 2020
CYNGOR CYMUNED LLANFYNYDD COMMUNITY COUNCIL Minutes of the Meeting held Monday 17th February, 2020 at Cymau Community Centre for 7.00pm 1. CHAIRMAN : Cllr. L. Williams 2. PRESENT : Cllrs. A. Roberts, D. Hughes, J. Jones, A. Partridge, R. Edwards, C. Thomas & C.W.J. Rhodes (arrived late) 3. APOLOGIES : Cllrs. J.M Barber 4. MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC Four members of the public present. The Chair welcomed the public and invited them to speak. S. Finn raised the following: From 2018 over 200 people have signed a petition with reference to the work and destruction of the ancient woodland in the Glascoed valley (referred to as Coed y Felin), Ffrith. The operation of machinery in the woods that has caused damage to historical structures, the collapse of the bank and flooding on the highway. The removal of hundreds of trees not only from Coed-y-Felin but also on a neighbouring property without permission. Despite NRW (Natural Resources Wales), Flintshire and Wrexham Council departments being involved the woodland remains under threat from the landowner. Residents are now discussing the possibility of acquiring some of the land as a community project, with looking for support from the local communities, neighbours and relevant organisations. The long term aim include the following: • Allowing re-generation, restoring biodiversity & planting native trees. • Reinstating the footpaths and creating an accessible woodland space for outdoor education and low impact recreational activities. • Preserving what is left of industrial structures, as they connect us historically with the Brymbo Heritage site and past industry all the way along the Cegidog valley to Llanfynydd and Coed-Talon. -
