Prior to the start of the November meeting of Amroth Community Council, a welcome was extended to Mr. Tim Jones, of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority.
A question was asked about the path from Eastlake Farm to the stream which could be difficult to walk on, especially after heavy rain and tractor use. The path leading from Hannah’s Plain to Ledgerland Farm could be impassable in places. However, Mr. Jones said that this path was not within his remit.

Broadband - This work was now in hand. Clr. Brinsden read out a cabinet statement showing the cabinet’s work in chasing up BT and WAG regarding this issue. Forms had gone out to all residents within the area asking them to write to Nerys Evans if they were experiencing problems with accessing roadband.

PLANED Community Action Planning: Llanteg has its own Community Association which worked in conjunction with the Llanteg Village Hall. It was stated that now there was a great opportunity to work together (with Amroth) across the community council area and help to lead on the key priorities identified in the Action Planning process by local people. Clr. Brinsden reported that he is still working on the sewage issue in our area. Welsh Water and EA are being invited to the Scrutiny Committee in January when Cllr Brinsden will be speaking about this on-going problem.

Bus shelter: Council agreed that it would like a bus shelter in Amroth village, the same as the one in Llanteg.

Flooding at Woodview: Clr. Brinsden stated that excess water was being allowed to be fed into the main drain.

Briarwood Corners – Mr K.Willams of Briarwood attended to complain about the state of the corners near his house which were being eroded. Mr Williams asked if the road could be adopted by the Council. Clr Brinsden said that as the road was a BOAT (byway open to all traffic) there was nothing that could be done about it. Clr Brinsden had requested extra piping on both sdies to ensure drainage was maintained. Clr Brinsden said a sign could be put up saying ‘Unsuitable for motors’. The Chair, Clr James, said they would do all they could to improve the situation and would keep it monitored.

National Park - Clr Brinsden stated that he had retained his seat on National Park and was still the chair of the National Park planning committee.
