Why it was refused
- The car park where the food and drink van/ trailer is proposed to be located is confined and the provision of a catering van on the site would take up already limited parking spaces leading to on-road parking to the detriment of highway safety, and would lead to a lack of space for safe manoeuvring within the park which is an area well-used by walkers and their pets, contrary to Monmouthshire Local Development Plan Policy DES1 a), that seeks to ensure that developments provide a safe, secure, pleasant and convenient environment.

Os ydych eisiau apelio, yna mae'n rhaid i chi wneud hynny o fewn chwe mis o ddyddiad yr hysbysiad hwn yn defnyddio ffurflen sydd ar gael gan yr PEDW, Parc Cathays, Caerdydd CF10 3NQ. Fodd bynnag, os yw'r datblygiad yn ddeiliad tŷ neu ddatblygiad masnachol bach, y cyfnod apêl yw 12 wythnos. Gall Llywodraeth Cymru ganiatáu cyfnod hirach ar gyfer rhoi hysbysiad apêl ond ni fydd fel arfer yn barod i ddefnyddio'r pŵer yma os nad oes amgylchiadau arbennig sy'n esgusodi'r oedi wrth roi hysbysiad o'r apêl. Nid yw'n rhaid i Lywodraeth Cymru ystyried apêl os yw'n ymddangos na allai'r Awdurdod Cynllunio Lleol fod wedi rhoi caniatâd cynllunio gan roi ystyriaeth i ofynion statudol, darpariaethau'r gorchymyn datblygu ac unrhyw gyfarwyddiadau a roddwyd dan y gorchymyn. Yn ymarferol nid yw Llywodraeth Cymru yn gwrthod ystyried apeliadau yn unig oherwydd bod yr Awdurdod Cynllunio Lleol wedi seilio eu penderfyniad ar gyfarwyddyd a roddwyd gan Lywodraeth Cymru. Mae dewis o 3 gweithdrefn apêl. Caiff Arolygydd ei benodi i benderfynu ar yr apêl ym mhob achos. Sylwadau Ysgrifenedig - yr ydych chi a'r awdurdod cynllunio lleol yn gwneud datganiadau ysgrifenedig i gael eu hystyried gan yr Arolygydd. Gwrandawiad Anffurfiol - caiff datganiadau ysgrifenedig eu paratoi fel uchod ond mae pob parti yn ymddangos mewn person gerbron yr Arolygydd. Ymchwiliad Cyhoeddus - mae hyn yn broses ffurfiol, mae pob parti yn ymddangos gerbron yr Arolygydd, fel arfer gyda chynrychiolaeth gyfreithiol a chroesholi. Hysbysiadau Prynu Os yw un ai'r Awdurdod Cynllunio Lleol neu Lywodraeth Cymru yn gwrthod caniatâd i ddatblygu tir neu ei roi yn ddarostyngedig i amodau, gall perchennog y tir hawlio na all naill ai wneud defnydd rhesymol fuddiol o'r tir yn ei gyflwr presennol na gwneud y tir yn alluog o ddefnydd rhesymol fuddiol drwy wneud unrhyw waith datblygu sydd wedi neu a fyddai'n cael ei ganiatáu. Yn yr amgylchiadau hyn gall y perchennog gyflwyno hysbysiad prynu i'r Cyngor lle mae'r tir wedi'i leoli. Bydd yr hysbysiad yn ei gwneud yn ofynnol i'r Cyngor brynu ei ddiddordeb yn y tir yn unol â darpariaethau Rhan VI Deddf Cynllunio Tref a Gwlad 1990.
