A letter from FoPL was considered, outlining their proposal for possible siting of the library in one of two locations in the hall car park. Council noted that it was previously agreed that the procedure would be for FoPL to hold a public meeting, then for Council to hold an Extraordinary Full Council meeting, however these points were brought to a Council meeting tonight, prior to a public meeting. General consensus was that the options for siting the new library in the Hall car park had not been carefully enough thought out, and that it was important to consider other options. A number of years ago, when the Hall car park was extended, and the council took on a 2nd lease for the car park, this was because the Hall car park was not large enough for users, and needed to be extended. The large hall has a capacity of 170, the small hall 30, and Squiggles nursery also uses the car park. Recent observations at the hall car park over the past week or so to assess usage showed that, for example on Wednesday at 3.00 pm there were 15 people in the large hall (community café) and 22 in the small hall (Quilts class). The hall car parks were full except for 1 space. On Monday at 3.15 pm, the two hall car parks were full and there were 2 cars waiting for spaces. The main school car park was also full, with some cars double parked and 8 cars waiting to enter the car park. Furthermore, as well as the need to retain the current car parks, it was felt that Option A is too large for the site, and Option B makes the way through to the back car park very narrow, and also the new building would be right in front of the school. Councillors are aware of the problems currently experienced in the school and hall car park areas at school drop off and collections times. The need for some allocated disabled parking spaces was noted, as well as the safe zones and fire assembly points needed. Other options which could perhaps be considered: With the proposed Local Development Plan, and housing planned for alongside Pennard Drive – planners could demand a space for a library there on condition of granting permission for a certain number of houses there. An example of this type of development in West Cross was noted – where Baywood Community Centre was included in the development. The Community Council is currently applying for grant funding towards undertaking a Community Consultation / Feasibility Study in order to then produce a Community Development Plan. Options for the library will be included in the Consultation and Feasibility Study alongside other community facilities. Another option would be to approach Bishopston Community Council, to enquire as to the possibility of siting a new library on their land – noting that the library is to serve the whole of Gower, not just Pennard. Pennard Community Council’s playing fields are under a Fields in Trust Contract – it is clear that this land may only be used for sports purposes. 2 CC Swansea Cllr Raynor had been contacted, to enquire if it was possible for Pennard Community Council to lease the current library site from CC Swansea, but a negative response was received. Cllr Raynor did however indicate that the review of libraries is still the subject of an in-depth review. The clerk was instructed to write to FoPL outlining these points. Clerk 2016/7 Appointment of members to Committees Members present agreed to join the committees as outlined below. The clerk was instructed to Clerk contact those not present to obtain their committee membership wishes. It was noted that the chair and vice chair would be members of all committees. It was agreed that councillors should be members of a minimum of 2 committees. HALL – LJ (chair), WW, JT, RC BURIAL GROUND – JT (chair), RC, AR, HB ENVIRONMENT – HB (chair), LJ, IA, AR, JT PLANNING – RC (chair), MS, LD, IA FIELD – WW (chair), JT, LJ, IA, LD, MS 2016/8 Minutes of Planning Committee held on 12 January 2016 It was proposed, seconded and agreed that the minutes were a true and correct record. There were 3 votes in favour (all who were present) and 8 abstentions. 2016/9 Hall Committee a. The hall risk assessment completed by Mr Frank Jones on 7 December 2015 was noted. The issues raised were as follows: 1. Asbestos survey – previously completed. 2. Guards over main hall lights were previously secured. 3. Kitchen lights – guards needed. 4. Storage LJ/Clerk cupboard – review to be done of storage arrangements. b. Quotation for separate gas and water meters for Squiggles nursery. Cllr Margaret Smith declared an interest in this item, and took no part in the discussion or vote. The clerk had received a quote of £9935.67 for a gas meter, however a cheaper quote was outstanding from the local supplier, expected to be in the region of £2,500 - £3,000. The water meter quote was £1924.00 + VAT. It was agreed that these should be considered at a Hall Committee LJ meeting. c. Request for permission to consume alcohol at private party booked at hall. It was proposed, seconded and agreed with 10 votes in favour and 1 abstention that this should be approved.

There is no restriction on which breeds (or x breeds) of sheep can be used to produce ‘Gower Salt Marsh Lamb’. However, the breeds which are the most suitable, are hardy, lighter more agile breeds which thrive well on the salt marsh vegetation. ‘Gower Salt Marsh Lamb’ is aged between 4 to 10 months at time of slaughter.
