Since I was elected onto the Council in 2007, the Council has grown both professionally and in stature and I believe we are ready to take on the challenge of shaping local services for our community. The introduction of the Wellbeing of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015 has seen the Council adopt the 7 Wellbeing Goals for Barry: • A prosperous Barry • A resilient Barry • A healthier Barry • A more equal Barry • A Barry of cohesive communities • A Barry of vibrant culture and thriving Welsh language • A globally responsible Barry I am confident that we can face the challenge and deliver these goals, making a positive impact on the wellbeing of our residents. We will continue to work with partners, including the Vale of Glamorgan Council, community groups and organisations and local businesses to develop new initiatives, as well as maintain and deliver our services, such as the Merthyr Dyfan Cemetery and the Pioneer Hall in the centre of Town.

  • Local Development Plan 2011- 2026 Local Development Plan Written Statement June 2017 Foreword
    Vale of Glamorgan Local Development Plan 2011- 2026 Local Development Plan Written Statement June 2017 Foreword I am pleased to introduce the Local Development Plan which provides a framework for sustainable development within the Vale of Glamorgan up to 2026. It is an extremely important Policy document that will guide the growth of the Vale of Glamorgan over a fifteen year period and identifies the infrastructure needs of our communities in terms of employment, facilities and services needed to support that growth. In setting this framework for the future development of the Vale of Glamorgan, we have been mindful of the need to regenerate and support our communities and in doing so the Plan seeks to achieve a balance between economic growth, social cohesion and environmental impact. Wherever possible the Plan’s emphasis is on re-using previously developed land and minimising the need to develop on green fields. Nowhere is this more apparent than in Barry where the emphasis is very much on the continued regeneration of the Waterfront. In addition, we have ensured that sufficient emphasis is being placed on providing for an appropriate level of growth in other communities throughout the Vale thereby ensuring their long term sustainability and vitality. In reading the document you will see that the evidence base that has informed the Plan and its policies is wide ranging and robust. I am particularly pleased that in progressing this Plan we have been able to comprehensively identify and allocate land for the services and facilities that will be needed to support additional residential and employment growth during the Plan period.

  • Valeways Newsletter Summer 2018
    Celebrating Twenty-Two Years of Walking in the Vale VALEWAYS Yn dathlu dwy flynedd a’r hugain o gerdded yn y Fro Newsletter Summer 2018 “Let’s go to Barry Island, Maggie fach, And give all the kids one day by the sea, And sherbet and buns and paper hats, And a rattling ride on the Figure Eight; We’ll have tea on the sands and rides on the donkeys, And sit in the evening with the folk of Cwm Rhondda, Singing the sweet old hymns of Pantycelyn When the sun goes down beyond the rocky islands…” What an appropriate poem to welcome the long awaited Summer and the latest Valeways Newsletter and Walks Programme! The poet Idris Davies, an ex-miner and a teacher was born in Rhymney and is probably best known for his poem ‘Bells of Rhymney’ which was later adapted into a popular folk ballad by Pete Seegar. While the poem reflects on the happy experiences of valleys folk as they visit the seaside on their annual day trip it also serves as a reminder of the hardship experienced by generations of workers in the South Wales valleys and how important was their day away from the coal face and the ‘big black tips’. Modern day living highlights the contrast even more, with the ferris wheel replacing the pit wheel and pithead baths giving way to supermarkets and retail parks. ‘Come on, Maggie fach, or the train will be gone’ The accompanying photo is a detail of the Pier Head Building in Cardiff Bay featuring the words ‘WRTH DDŴR A THȂN’ (by fire and water) – the contrasting elements which made the South Wales Valleys the bedrock of industry and made Maggie’s journey possible.
