Why can't they do something like Greater London or the Dublin Regional Authority. Each community could retain it's legal status and councils, but there would a regional board that could handle things like public transport, fire services, water, and establish a regional plan.
I'd love that - and if it works in the U.K. and Ireland, which have the same bitter divisions between proud, old communities - no matter how small their population - it could work here.
