DECLARATIONS OF INTEREST 2.- Declarations of interest are recorded under the relevant minute. PUBLIC QUESTION TIME 3.- The Chairman invited members of the public present to put questions to the Area Committee, or to raise issues of concern: Page 1 Agenda Item 4 Minutes of the Bryn y Cwm Area Committee Meeting held at Llanfair Kilgeddin Village Hall, Llanfair Kilgeddin, Abergavenny on Wednesday 9th October 2013 at 2.00 p.m. Highways issues on the B4598 The Chairman of Llanover Community Council provided the Area Committee with details of vehicle incidents on the B4598 that have occurred and been recorded by the Community Council since 31st March 2013. The Chairman of the Community Council also provided the Area Committee with the following information: This information has never been undertaken before and no one previously has noted minor – not reported to the police – cases. Many of these incidents are extremely serious and it should be pointed out that others have occurred and have not been noticed or notified to the Area Committee. The Bryn y Cwm Area Committee created a sub-committee over three years ago but very little has been achieved to lessen the dangers of this road. There is a general trend that drivers are driving too fast for the road and the conditions, and in very minor cases with complete disregard for the law. The concern for the welfare of the community using the roads within the community, especially at weekends, has prompted Llanover Community Council and the local County Member to raise in six weeks a petition to reduce the speed limit to 50mph on the B4598. This was recently presented to full Council. The Community Council was pleased that a mandatory speed limit was being carried out near Llanfair Kilgeddin Primary School. There have also been two positive meetings with the Police Commissioner regarding policing the law on the following roads – Abergavenny to Usk B4598 and the minor roads to Raglan. The Community asked for the Area Committee’s support to install a mandatory speed limit to 50mph on these two dangerous roads to protect the community and to safeguard farming and hospitality industries. A large majority of the drivers that exceed the speed limit on these roads live outside Monmouthshire, e.g., Cambridge, the Midlands, London and the Bristol area. They have no social Page 2 Agenda Item 4 Minutes of the Bryn y Cwm Area Committee Meeting held at Llanfair Kilgeddin Village Hall, Llanfair Kilgeddin, Abergavenny on Wednesday 9th October 2013 at 2.00 p.m. responsibility for this community and their leisure speeding activities are a concern to the whole community. Members considered that the evidence gathered by Llanover Community Council was excellent and expressed their support for the Community Council that the speed limit on the B4598 should be reduced to 50mph. It was noted that Inspector Rowland Giles has been invited to attend the next Area Committee meeting. We resolved that the petition, received at full Council recently, should be forwarded to the appropriate committee for consideration. Car Parking Charges A local resident asked the Area Committee whether any changes were being made to the current car parking charges within Monmouthshire, in particular, whether the changes might affect Blue Badge holders. The Chairman of the Economy and Development Select Committee stated that the Select Committee was awaiting a report on this matter which would be received in the coming weeks. We resolved that the Bryn y Cwm Area Services Officer writes the Cabinet Member, County Councillor P.A.D. Hobson, to bring this report to the Bryn y Cwm Area Committee when available. Monitoring of bats In response to a question raised by a local resident regarding the monitoring of bats, it was noted that currently there were no bats using the bat boxes at the slaughterhouse. However, this was being monitored by Morrisons. BRYN Y CWM AREA COMMITTEE MINUTES 4.- The minutes of the Bryn y Cwm Area Committee meeting dated 24th July 2013 were confirmed and signed by the Chairman subject to the following amendment: Shale Lorries – B4598, second paragraph of this item, page 3: Remove reference to Pontrilas Saw Mills. This matter refers to lorries holding soil at the new market site. The Head of Infrastructure, Networks and sustainability has spoken to the contractors regarding this matter. Page 3 Agenda Item 4 Minutes of the Bryn y Cwm Area Committee Meeting held at Llanfair Kilgeddin Village Hall, Llanfair Kilgeddin, Abergavenny on Wednesday 9th October 2013 at 2.00 p.m. In receiving the minutes, the Cabinet Member with responsibility for Environment, Public Services and Housing stated that there were no plans to close the libraries at Usk and Gilwern. BRYN Y CWM CASTLE MEADOWS TASK AND FINISH GROUP 5.- We received and noted the minutes of the Bryn y Cwm Castle Meadows Task and Finish Group dated 6th September 2013. In doing so, it was noted that the Y Fenni Bridge would be officially opened by the Mayor of Abergavenny Town Council on Saturday 19th October 2013. NEXT STEPS AND FUTURE PROGRESS OF THE BRYN Y CWM WHOLE PLACE PLAN 6.- We received a presentation by the Head of Strategic Partnerships regarding the next steps and future progress of the Bryn y Cwm Whole Place Plan. The Area Committee was provided with the following information. Current Position • Whole Place Plan – developed. • Vibrant and Viable Places Funding – outcome received. • Work undertaken within Monmouthshire County Council to align work to the Whole Place approach. • Next steps proposal – ideas developed. Vision – Abergavenny and District A vibrant market town with superb local environment that looks after everyone, offers quality of life experiences to all and welcomes visitors with open arms. Theme 1 Abergavenny Town Centre and the wider business environment. Theme 2 Making sure no one gets left behind. Page 4 Agenda Item 4 Minutes of the Bryn y Cwm Area Committee Meeting held at Llanfair Kilgeddin Village Hall, Llanfair Kilgeddin, Abergavenny on Wednesday 9th October 2013 at 2.00 p.m. Theme 3 Strengthening Education and business links. Theme 4 Creating a sustainable settlement. The Whole Place approach is a new way of working involving public sector, local businesses and voluntary groups with an emphasis on collaboration, co-production, sharing responsibility and ownership. Traditional partnership structures and programme management approaches may not be fit for purpose. Opportunities and Developments • Borough Theatre – creation of a Trust. • Breakin’ Out Festival – 2nd year of success. • Park Street Project – community resource. • Gilwern Cycle Track / Centre – awarded funding. • Cycling Road Race Championships – finalists. • The Hill – development of a business plan. • Local Development Plan – final stages of approval. • Housing - 900 new homes, S106 money and Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) contributions. • Food tourism – Food Festival and Monmouthshire as Food Capital of Wales. • Brecon Beacons National Park – S106 money. Local Government Funding • The outlook is severe, is deteriorating and is very real. • Current financial modelling highlights a projected shortfall in excess of £9 million in 2014/15 rising to in excess of £23million by 2018/19. Page 5 Agenda Item 4 Minutes of the Bryn y Cwm Area Committee Meeting held at Llanfair Kilgeddin Village Hall, Llanfair Kilgeddin, Abergavenny on Wednesday 9th October 2013 at 2.00 p.m. • If schools budgets were fully protected this would result in an average 28% reduction in all remaining budgets. • If schools and social services budgets were both protected this would result in an average 49% reduction in all remaining budgets. • Council services will either change, stop or be led by others going forward. What’s Important? • Action – it is critical that we all deliver a visible impact in the area. • Structure – one that allows all parties to participate in decision making and action. • Success – we can show our progress to auditors, grant funding bodies, own governance structures. • Openness and honesty – key stakeholders need to say what they can contribute, how and when. Existing Groups • Bryn-y-Cwm Area Forum (and its sub groups). • Bryn-y-Cwm Area Committee (and its sub groups). • Abergavenny Civic Society. • Abergavenny Business Club. • Transition Abergavenny. • Town and Community Councils. • Community Groups The Programme Board could • Take ownership of the vision and coordination of the activity. • Be responsible for driving the programme forward. • Monitor progress against outcomes.

  • Better Bryn-Y-Cwm
    Better Bryn-y-Cwm The Whole Place Plan for Abergavenny and District Consultation Draft – May 2013 Sustainable Regeneration Solutions Introduction Monmouthshire County Council is changing. Under the banner ‘Your County, Your Way’ the Council has embarked on a journey of cultural and organisational change to enable it to respond creatively to the needs and aspirations of the communities of Monmouthshire. As part of this process, the Council aims to create opportunities that empower local communities to shape and enhance their future prospects, supported by the council but with residents, community organisations and the business community taking the opportunity and responsibility to themselves in order to realise shared aspirations and ambitions for their area. To support this, the Council commissioned Sustainable Regeneration Solutions to undertake the development of a ‘Whole Place Plan for Bryn Y Cwm’ – the area of North Monmouthshire centred on the town of Abergavenny and its neighbouring villages. At the heart of this approach is a recognition that plans, projects and programmes are too often dealt with in isolation. Instead, an integrated approach is needed which draws on the evidenced priorities and concerns of the local community and brings together a range of initiatives to address these. The aim of the ‘Plan’ is to provide a route map of clear projects and interventions that, together, can make a significant contribution to making Bryn y Cwm a better place for those who live, work and come to the area. The ‘Plan’ is not a statement of lofty ambitions but is focussed on getting things done with the community and its representatives, and is about the partnerships and practical steps needed.

  • 1. PURPOSE: to Consider the Proposed Order Subsequent to Representations Received Following Advertisement in Accordance With
    SUBJECT: PROPOSED 50 MPH MAXIMUM SPEED LIMIT B4598 B4598 PENPERGWM – USK AND R64 LLANVIHANGEL GOBION - RAGLAN MEETING: Cabinet DATE: 7th January 2015 DIVISION/WARDS AFFECTED: Bryn y Cwm, Central; Llanover, Llanbadoc, Raglan 1. PURPOSE: To consider the proposed Order subsequent to representations received following advertisement in accordance with the Local Authorities Traffic Orders (Procedure) (England and Wales) Regulations 1996. 2. RECOMMENDATIONS: Not to hold an inquiry into the proposal. To approve the proposed Order as consulted and advertised and to implement the Order. 3. KEY ISSUES: Following receipt of a petition advocating a lower speed limit on the B4598 Usk – Hardwick Interchange and route R64 Llanvihangel Gobion – Raglan Roundabout roads, and in accordance with the recommendation of the Strong Communities Select Committee on 30th April, conditions on these routes were assessed in accordance with the Welsh Governments ‘Setting Local Speed Limits in Wales’ guidance. It was considered that a 50mph maximum speed limit in lieu of the existing national speed limit (60mph) would be appropriate between Penpergwm and Usk, and between Steelhorse Café and Raglan Roundabout, whilst retaining the existing 40mph maximum speed limits at Llanfair Kilgeddin and Llancayo. Accordingly these proposals were consulted upon and advertised. Consequently two petitions have been received, together with responses from Gwent Police, three Councillors, two Community Councils, and 23 members of the public. The police originally expressed reservations but subsequently stated they do not have any objections to the proposal. The signatories of one petition, the community councils and 17 individual respondents indicate their support, whilst the signatories of the other petition and 6 individual respondents object.

In January 2009, the Local Government Minister, Dr Brian Gibbons asked this Commission to review the electoral arrangements in each principal local authority in Wales. Dr Gibbons said: “Conducting regular reviews of the electoral arrangements in each Council in Wales is part of the Commission’s remit. The aim is to try and restore a fairly even spread of councillors across the local population. It is not about local government reorganisation. Since the last reviews were conducted new communities have been created in some areas and there have been shifts in population in others. This means that in some areas there is now an imbalance in the number of electors that councillors represent.

  • Monmouthshire (VC35) Rare Plant Register
    Monmouthshire (VC35) Rare Plant Register April 2019 Steph Tyler Elsa Wood Monmouthshire County Rare Plant Register Stephanie J. Tyler Elsa Wood Text editing Barbara Brown April 2019 Cover: Orobanche minor – Common Broomrape or Gorfanhadlen. Image: Elsa Wood Monmouthshire Rare Plant Register 2019 MONMOUTHSHIRE VICE-COUNTY 35 RARE PLANT REGISTER This edition updates the first Rare Plant Register produced by Trevor Evans (Evans 2007). Some additional species have been included whereas others have been removed. The reasons for these changes are given below. Rare and Scarce species In the RPR by Evans (2007) there are several species which have since been found to be more widespread in vc35 than previously thought. These, Ranunculus lingua Greater Spearwort ( widely planted), Iris foetidissima Stinking Iris, Echium vulgare Viper’s Bugloss, Chrysosplenium alternifolium Alternate-leaved Golden Saxifrage, Crepis biennis Rough Hawk’s-beard, Myriophyllum spicatum Spiked Water-milfoil , Samolus valerandi Brookweed, Frangula alnus Alder Buckthorn, Poa angustifolia Narrow-leaved Meadow-grass, Puccinellia distans Reflexed Saltmarsh Grass and Populus nigra ssp.betulifolia Black Poplar are no longer included in this revised RPR as occur at more than 10 sites. Moreover, Anacamptis pryamidalis Pyramidal Orchid occurs at almost 40 sites. The revised RPR recognises locally rare species, both Natives and Archaeophyes, as those that are found in up to three sites in VC35 and locally scarce species which occur in up to 10 sites. Several have been moved from locally rare to locally scarce e.g. Anthemis cotula. Species such as Littorella uniflora Shoreweed with 11 records are therefore not included. Some other species, whilst being recorded at more than 10 sites, are considered under threat in a GB or Welsh context and therefore these have been included in this Register.
