The Future of Bryn Euryn?
Have your say before it’s too late
The Council has decided to go ahead with a feasibility study into fencing off large areas for animals to graze, despite huge public reaction against the idea.
As a result the ‘Bryn Euryn Users Association’ (BEUA) has been formed by people who love Bryn Euryn, to preserve and protect it as it is and have a voice on matters concerning the area.
We would urge everyone who cares about Bryn Euryn, to attend a
Public Open Meeting
Monday 7th September 7.30pm
Colwyn Bay County Cricket Club
Penrhyn Avenue, Rhos-on-sea
All members of the public, Council and Assembly representatives and bodies connected with the management of Bryn Euryn are invited and will have the opportunity to have their say.
We look forward to seeing you there.
Refreshments will be available.
For further information contact 07955 202083 or
07976 829202
A copy of the new Associations Constitution was also attached and nominations for officers requested by 5th September. All are welcome.
