Back to the old Glamorgan Council set up - lets keep a Council that works for the Vale. Cardiff is big enough to work on its own does ity realy need the Vale to help it?

It would be a real shame to see a beautiful rural area and a successful local authority like the Vale losing its character by being swallowed by Cardiff.

We will be swallowed by Cardiff and they will use our land for their housing projects and the like.

If a merger is inevitable one with the other coastal Glamorgan councils would make more sense. Ie with Bridgend and, even, Neath/Port Talbot. Best would be no merger with any council. Perhaps sharing some services would be a sensible alternative.

The Vale of Glamorgan and Cardiff would be be a. Disastrous pairing and the Vale would definitely come off worse. Bridgend would be a more sensible pairing as they both have similar requirements.

this would be a disaster for the Vale, if we must join with another council let it be Bridgend. They understand the needs of towns & villages.

Prior to the formation of Unitary Authorities in 1996 as part of South Glamorgan the needs of the Vale were not a priority.We feel it would be disastrous to return to that situation

This is such an inappropriate pairing that it would be laughable if it wasn't so frightening for anyone living in the Vale!

I think it is most inappropriate for Cardiff to merge with The Vale as they are completely different types of area.

Any merger with Cardiff would be a disaster for Vale Residents

THE VALE OF GLAMORGAN IS AN EFFICIENT COUNTY BOROUGH AND A MERGER WITH CARDIFF IS NOT A FEASIBLE OPTION FOR MANY REASONS

The Vale is a distinct area with much history and should not become another suburb of Cardidf.
