Feasibility of introducing grazing livestock to Bryn Euryn Local Nature Reserve.
Following concerns raised by members of the public to the idea of Conwy County Borough Council investigating the feasibility of introducing grazing livestock to Bryn Euryn Local Nature Reserve (LNR) to manage the grasslands, a meeting was held on site this week of the Bryn Euryn LNR Management Advisory Group.
The members looked at the grassland areas and informally discussed the various issues around the idea of introducing grazing livestock to help manage the grasslands for which the site is designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest.
After thoughtful discussion, a vote followed, whereby it was agreed by 4 to 3, that Conwy County Borough Council Countryside Officers should continue to gather information towards assessing the feasibility of introducing grazing livestock to the Bryn, and that this feasibility study should be presented to a formal meeting of the group in October/November 2009. It was also agreed that a relevant representative of the 'Bryn Euryn Users Association' should be invited to attend this meeting.
The Committee is anxious to underline the fact that no decisions have yet been made, and that full consultation will take place with the public if a decision to continue is taken after the feasibility study has been completed.
