Approval of previous minutes (11.10.17): Previous meeting’s minutes were agreed a true account and approved. Proposed – Keith Carroll Seconded – Kevin Goodchild Signed – Geraint Edwards. 4. Matters arising from the previous meeting (11.10.17): a) Sion Bryn (Youth Service Officer) – has confirmed, in a telephone conversation with Geraint Edwards, that the money which was left after the Youth Club in Llwyngwril folded would be transferred to the Community Council’s bank account, to be used to buy equipment for the Play Park in Llwyngwril. b) Lack of car parking spaces in Llwygwril – letter has been received from Gwynedd Council Parking Officer, following a site visit with Geraint Edwards and Huw Davies to the car park near Bod Idris, Llwyngwril, confirming that arrangements are in place to tidy up the two car parks in Llwyngwril – in January 2018. Gwynedd Council Officers will be contacting the owners of the cars which have not been moved in a while. c) Ysgol Craig y Deryn Governors – Gwynedd Council have confirmed that they have received David Griffiths’ contact details. 5. Correspondence: a) Public Toilets in Llwyngwril: Gwynedd Council have contacted the Community Council to ask if we wish to take more responsibility or even take over the whole provision, or continue to be part of the partnership scheme? Resolution to continue with the partnership scheme for the next year – 2018-19 (£2,000.00). Review the situation again next year, and maybe contact some of the Community Councils who have already taken over the whole provision and assess how the arrangement works for them. b) Marie Curie: letter requesting a financial contribution to support Marie Curie Nurses and local services. Resolution All in favour to support this application = £50.00. Propose: Kevin Goodchild Seconded: Geraint Edwards. c) Sale of land at Tyn y Buarth Car Park, Llwyngwril: information has been received regarding Gwynedd Council’s intention to sell a piece of Tyn y Buarth land, near the car park, as at present they say it is surplus to requirement. Gwynedd Council happy to receive any observations the Community Council have. Resolution letter to be sent to confirm that the Community Council have already contacted Gwynedd Council to make them aware that there is a problem with lack of parking spaces in Llwyngwril, especially at the car park near Tyn y Buarth. Hopefully the parking issues would not be exacerbated as a result of Gwynedd Council selling this land. Hopefully another “access route” would not be created through the car park to Tyn y Buarth land. Hopefully, there will be conditions preventing anybody building houses on the site/land that Gwynedd Council are intending to sell. 6.
