Cardiff's Civic Society has come out and said the council needs a better vision for the city for the next 15 years.
The council's vision as set out earlier this year is:
"By 2020 Cardiff will be a world class European city with an exceptional quality of life and at the heart of a thriving city region."
The civic society says this needs to be more defined – with measurable targets – and offers this alternative vision:
"By 2026 Cardiff will be recognised as offering citizens, workers and visitors an exemplary quality of life and for sporting, innovation and cultural excellence in a sustainable, carbon free environment. Cardiff will be in the top three cities measured by the Centre for Cities surveys in key indicators, particularly for health, culture, business and employment. It should be the leader in the city of the Valleys initiative to ensure economic and social well-being is shared by all citizens."
But what would your city vision for 2026 be? Leave a sentence or two in the comments section below and we'll highlight the best ones on the blog.
