    MATTERS TO BE CONSIDERED AT THE REQUEST OF MEMBERS OF THE CONSULTATIVE COMMITTEE

    • Meeting of Barmouth Harbour Consultative Committee, Tuesday, 22nd March, 2022 2.00 pm (Item 5.)

    To consider matters at the request of the Members.

     

    -       Matters raised by Barmouth Town Council (email dated 4th of March 2022)

    Minutes:

    Ramp in Fairbourne

     

    An application was made from a community group for funding to install a ramp to allow Fairbourne residents and visitors to have access to the beach. It was noted that it was unfair that an entrance did not exist. It was added that the Community Council had sought funding; around £50,000 would be needed to fund the cost.

     

    The Maritime Manager noted that he had had discussions with Arthog Community Council Clerk regarding the ramp. He reported that there would be a need for anything added in Fairbourne to be robust and not affect the coastal flow and that it was important to have the appropriate arrangements and rights in place.  It was noted that there would be a need for a maritime licence as it was under the line of mean high water so it was likely that the cost would be much more than £50,000. He added he hoped to meet with Natural Resources Wales after Easter to discuss their requirements on the site.

     

    The Maritime Manager explained that he had submitted an expression of interest in coastal grants but there was no capacity to develop them at present. He noted that he understood the frustration and hoped to have further discussions with the Community Council soon.

     

    Spaces in the compound and managing parking in the compound.

     

    Reference was made to the points raised by Barmouth Town Council’s representative in a previous e-mail. The Maritime Manager noted that he did not have a specific answer to the questions on the above. It was added that there would be a delay on the schemes in place as a new Harbour Master would be appointed and time would need to be allowed for them to settle in the role so there was no specific programme at present. 

     

    Minutes

     

    It was asked who received a copy of the minutes of meetings and whether they had further discussions anywhere. It was reported that the minutes were shared with the Cabinet Member for Economy and Community. The Committee wished to thank the present Cabinet Member for his support over the years. It was added that there was no further discussion in the Cabinet as a result of the minutes of this Committee but the maritime team would bring important matters before the Leadership Team and the Cabinet if needed.

     

    Barmouth 10K Race

     

    The Three Peaks Race Committee Representative took the opportunity to mention the above event that would be held on 9 July and the continuous work to be able to hold the event. It was noted that this was a big event for Barmouth with preparation work in place for years. He added that there would be a need to ask permission to clear the back wall of the Yacht Club car park as a great deal of sand had piled up there. The Three Peaks Race Committee Representative was thanked for his work and hopes were extended that the day would be a success.

     

     

    The Chair took advantage of the opportunity to thank members of the Committee, Council staff and the harbour staff for their work and support over the years as this would be his last meeting. He extended his best wishes to everyone for the future.

    The Maritime Manager wished to thank the Chair for all his work, his friendship and professionalism, recognising the excellent collaboration that took place over the years. This was reiterated by Committee members.
