Wrthi'n llwytho
Ystyriodd y Cabinet ddiweddariad ar Stadiwm St Helen's yn Abertawe, a sut i'w ailddatblygu yn stadiwm gymunedol ac yn gartref i dîm rygbi'r Ospreys. Cymeradwyodd y Cabinet ymrwymo'r £5.1m llawn, rhoi prydles 50 mlynedd i'r Ospreys, a throsglwyddo rhydd-ddaliad clwb y stadiwm i'r cyngor, yn amodol ar asesiad pellach o reolaeth cymhorthdal (gwiriad nad yw arian cyhoeddus yn ffafrio un busnes yn annheg). Eithriwyd y penderfyniad rhag galw i mewn, sef proses sy'n caniatáu i gynghorwyr ofyn i benderfyniad gael ei adolygu cyn iddo ddod i rym.

Call In Procedure - Urgency: This decision is exempt from the Authority’s Call In Procedure as “either the Head of Paid Service, the Section 151 Officer or the Monitoring Officer certifies that any delay likely to be caused by the Call In Procedure could seriously prejudice the Council or the Public Interest including failure to comply with Statutory requirements”. The Cabinet Member for Economy, Finance & Strategy submitted a report that provided an update on St Helen’s Stadium and sought approval of the steps required to redevelop the Stadium for it to be fit for purpose, as set out in previous Cabinet reports, as a Community Stadium and as the home for Ospreys Rugby. Resolved that: 1) It be noted that following the decision of Cabinet in March 2026, the initial actions to facilitate the works at St Helen’s under the clear rationale they were for community usage have now been enacted and commenced. This included sufficient due diligence and appropriate legal agreements to protect the Council interests at this stage of the redevelopment. 2) Subject to the satisfactory completion of a further subsidy control assessment, the following be approved: i) Committing the full £5.1m as originally approved by Cabinet in December 2024 by way of investment into St Helen’s as an enhanced community provision ii) The granting of a 50-year lease to the Ospreys, with the freehold of St Helen’s Clubhouse being transferred to Swansea Council, to form part of the lease. 3) Authority be delegated to the Head of Property and Regeneration, Chief Executive, Chief Legal Officer and the Section 151 Officer to approve the terms of the lease with the Ospreys and to enter into any other legal documents necessary to deliver the works and the project generally.

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.
