Wrthi'n llwytho
Does dim crynodeb o'r cyfarfod hwn eto. Caiff crynodebau eu hysgrifennu pan fydd y cyngor yn cyhoeddi'r cofnodion, sef ei gofnod swyddogol o'r hyn a benderfynodd cyfarfod. Maen nhw fel arfer yn ymddangos ychydig wythnosau ar ôl y cyfarfod.

Matthew Brushett from Audit Wales and Tom Evans attended to give an overview and answer questions. The following was noted - · This is a national report looking at how all Welsh councils are supporting and encouraging repurposing and regeneration of vacant properties and brownfield or previously developed sites into homes. · Audit Wales made three recommendations to Councils which Swansea Council have responded to. Audit Wales also made two recommendations to Welsh Government. · Whist Audit Wales has requested Welsh Government revisit and consider the national picture of brownfield sites and revisiting how they monitor progress against those sites they cannot influence legislation or policy and have mainly focused the report on where councils can improve within the current framework. · The panel raised concerns around privately owned brownfield sites and additional costs compared to greenfield sites which could deter developers. · Council officers stated they take a proactive approach with robust processes in place to maximise access to funding and collaborative working with detailed analysis of site viability taking place. · The panel noted that Swansea Council have a good record of regenerating brownfield sites assisted by grant funding and recommended that a more proactive approach to councillor involvement in the Local Development Plan could be taken by the council when identifying brownfield sites within wards.
Rachel Harries from Audit Wales and Richard Rowlands attended to give an overview and answer questions. The following was noted – · The report from Audit Wales relates to how the Council uses performance information, understands the views of service users, the outcomes of the Council's activities and what information is shared with senior leaders to help them understand service user perspective. · A national summary report of all 22 Councils is to be published in July. Council officers stated that they have welcomed the report and consequently carried out a recent resident survey, are participating in a WLGA organised national resident survey and have included more qualitative information to supplement the quantitative measures. · The panel felt that without consistency of performance measures, comparing data over time is much more difficult. They also referenced the work of scrutiny within the area of performance which was not noted in the Audit Wales report.
The draft work plan was agreed.
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.
