Hysbysir drwy hyn, yn unol â’r Ddeddfwriaeth uchod, bod Cyngor Sir Powys yng nghyfarfod y Cyngor a gynhaliwyd ar 8 Hydref 2026 wedi penderfynu y bydd y Premiymau Treth Cyngor canlynol yn gymwys i eiddo gwag hirdymor o 1 Ebrill 2027 ymlaen:
• Premiwm 100% lle mae eiddo wedi bod yn wag yn barhaus am flwyddyn neu fwy ond llai na 5 mlynedd.
• Premiwm o 200% lle mae eiddo wedi bod yn wag yn barhaus am 5 mlynedd neu fwy ond llai na 10 mlynedd.

Nodyn Esboniadol
Mae deddfwriaeth y Dreth Gyngor yn caniatáu i Awdurdodau Lleol Cymru godi premiwm y Dreth Gyngor o hyd at 300% ar eiddo gwag hirdymor, h.y. yr eiddo hynny sy’n wag ac yn sylweddol heb ddodrefn ac sydd wedi bod yno am gyfnod parhaus o flwyddyn. Mae’r penderfyniad hwn yn amrywio’r penderfyniad blaenorol i godi premiwm Treth y Cyngor o 100% ar eiddo gwag hirdymor.
