In addition, it was announced that all seats within the auditorium were soon to be removed for refurbishment and put back in situ by the end of September, 2025. This had been made possible as a result of donations from within the community and a UK Government Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF) – Conwy Community Regeneration Key Fund grant. In considering the report, Members made reference to the following: • The increasing number of outside organisations/groups booking to use the facilities was praised. Securing new hirers and continually building connections to ensure local amateur drama and musical companies, dance schools, schools, and colleges hired the venue was welcomed. • The importance of promoting the Welsh language and culture and liaising with Welsh organisations, such as the Urdd Conwy. • In terms of developing the music scene and encouraging local ‘up and coming’ bands, Members were advised that the Winter Sounds Festival played a pivotal role in show casing local and national musical talent, however, it was recognised that more could be done via social media and website feeds to attract users, subject to available funding.

Rhaid i gynghorwyr ddweud pan fydd ganddyn nhw gysylltiad personol â rhywbeth sy'n cael ei drafod, fel swydd, eiddo neu aelod o'r teulu. Mae buddiant sy'n rhagfarnu yn ddigon cryf i'r cynghorydd adael yr ystafell fel arfer a pheidio â chymryd rhan.
Caiff datganiadau eu darllen o'r cofnodion unwaith y byddan nhw wedi'u cyhoeddi.
Yn rhestru cynghorwyr presennol y cyngor yn unig. Nid yw aelodau cyfetholedig, swyddogion a chyn-gynghorwyr yn cael eu dangos.
