Earlier this year the Blaenau Gwent Council agreed to conduct a review of electoral arrangements and community boundaries in Blaenau Gwent. These are: Abertillery and Llanhilleth community council, Brynmawr Town Council, Nantyglo and Blaina Town Council and Tredegar Town Council. Ebbw Vale Urban District Council was abolished in 1974 under a local government reorganisation that created Gwent County Council and Blaenau Gwent as a second-tier district council. Setting up a town council in Ebbw Vale is an idea that has been championed by Blaenau Gwent councillor for Ebbw Vale South Cllr Jonathan Millard (Reform UK). The potential five wards of an Ebbw Vale town council are: Beaufort & Badminton, Cwm, Ebbw Vale North, Ebbw Vale South and Rassau & Garnlydan.
